Wkhtmltopdf has basically not been updated in years aside from minor bug fixes. It has major issues the author has no plans to fix. I've spend 100s of hours applying workarounds to legacy codebases. All that code could be refactored now. Phantomjs and wkhtmltopdf don't even support doing $(.htmlE).width() from JavaScript. This can complicate laying out the page needless to say. https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/issues/2419

Why are you doing layout code in javascript? If it can't be done using CSS then your doing something wrong. This is being used to generate PDFs of exact width and height size documents. Hard code the width and height of your page.
