MacOS Sonoma 14.2 wicked_pdf (2.6.3) wkhtmltopdf 0.12.6 (with patched qt)

Showing the file is ok, but trying to save the file with Carrierwave return this error

You maybe able to work around this by using the ApplicationController renderer. This worked in my example.

Change your render_to_string to this:

ApplicationController.renderer.render(
        template: "pdfs/#{template}",
        locals: locals,
        encoding: "UTF-8"
      )

Hope this helps!
