Hello all,
When you install the "wkhtmltopdf" try to install stable version by getting the source via wget, because the apt-get does not download stable versions.
Thank You.
It depends on what are the repos u added in ur software sources...
For Odoo14 and MacOs 10+ Users:
$ brew install wkhtmltopdf
copy path from $ which wkhtmltodpf
And follow steps provided by Abdullah (modified for current times):

The instruction you posted is for the enterprise version right? Does it work on the community version?
I have odoo v9 installed and I don't have the "technical features" option you indicated.
Hi, I did exactly these steps, as Abdullah Sofan explained, but it does not work in my system. Could anybody help me, please?
1. Downloaded version 0.12.2 for Windows (MSVC 2013) from http://wkhtmltopdf.org/downloads.html#stable
2. Set Windows Environment Param, from cmd: setx path "%path%;C:\Odoo\wkhtmltopdf32\bin\"
3. Restart the system and verify that the tool runs correctly, from cmd: wkhtmltopdf –version
4. Created system param in Odoo with the name webkit_path and value “C:\Odoo\wkhtmltopdf32\bin\wkhtmltopdf.exe”. (Settings -> Parameters -> System Parameters -> Create -> Key).
5. Added parameter bin_path = C:\Odoo\wkhtmltopdf32\bin\wkhtmltopdf.exe to the file openerp-server.conf
6. Restart Odoo.
since end of November 2014, a new config parameter is available. the parameter bin_path is used for external binaries served in the thirdparty dir. If you have installed wkhtmltopdf 0.12.x you can set the parameter bin_path in openerp-server.conf to the installation path of wkhtmltopdf. This is the recommended solution from odoo.

Were you able to find a Windows solutions?
for windows, download and install wkhtmltopdf for your version of windows (32 bit or 64 bit)
If it doesn't work, modify the value to be C:\Progra~1\wkhtmltopdf\bin\wkhtmltopdf.exe
That should do it. I hope this helps.
How is the solution for windows platform?
@Luke thank you for the help, it helped me... :)
