Error when printing Material Request

Hi all, I got this error as I was trying to print a pdf of a material request. Any idea how to solve this?

Traceback (innermost last):

The error comes if I try to print / pdf before I save. Once the doc is saved, there is no more error. (just a small bug?)

Yeah this should be stopped. PDF is generated server-side, so unless its saved, you can’t do this.
