So we are building custom reports in Shipments . I was thinking a way where we get the pdf instead of odt while printing ?

Yes, on the _Action Report_ model there is a _Report Extension_ field. Setting this field to _Portable Document Format_ will indicate the server that a conversion to PDF should be done before showing the report to the user.
Please note that you will need to have libreoffice installed on your server. If you are using the docker image, make sure to use the tags with `-office` suffix (i.e `6.2-office`).

Hey @pokoli
I tried running the following command
```auto
`docker run --name aal-berm -p 8047:8000 --link aal-postgres:postgres -e DB_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword -d tryton/tryton -office`
```
I am still getting the following error
```auto
uwsgi: unrecognized option '--office'
```

You should use `tryton/tryton:office` as docker image if you want to use the latests one.

Never mind
I used the tag `tryton/tryton:5.8-office` it sorted the issue
