Wicked pdf render_to_string to generate pdf wider than browser's viewport

Im using wicked pdf for generating pdf files from views, but I mentioned that wicked_pdf cant generate pdf wider, than my browser's viewport. Is it possible to generate pdf with render_to_string from view, that wider than browser's viewport when filled with data? p.s sorry for tautology.

wkhtmltopdf v0.12.0 added support for --viewport-size option that you could use to adjust the viewport to your liking.

Unfortunately WickedPdf doesn't seem to have upgraded to that version yet and does not allow you to specify viewport size.

At the moment your best option would be to patch WickedPdf yourself by adding :viewport_size to the allowed options somewhere in the parse_others method (don't forget documentation and README) and then make a pull-request.
