I am using Kibana 6.5.3 and creating report from a saved search in Discover - there is no facility in the share drop down menu to export via PDF  
I have checked /etc/kibana/kibana.yml and there are no xpack settings in this file - do I need to enable xpack for 6.5.3 ?  
How can I get 6.5.3 to allow me to export to PDF for report/dashboard/discover?

Hello @terry433iid ,

For PDF reports you need at least a Gold license.

You can try it out using a trial license.

Or you can start using Elastic Cloud which comes with X Pack with all the features enabled.
