You will always be able to use like format.pdf as long as your route supports .:format part. So just use that to capture the request for pdf. Then render the pdf using wicked_pdf.

The basic usage is showing there as below

def controller_action
    ... ... ...
    ... ... ...
    format.pdf do
        render :pdf => "file_name"
    end
end
