If you are using report generator and would like to produce a .pdf programatically (for, e.g., a deployed application) but want to do that from a Word Document template, you can do this via the following code:
d = Report(...)
...
close(d);
rptview(d.OutputPath, 'pdf');
it will convert the .docx file to a .pdf. (Thus, you can proceed programatically as .dotx -> .docx -> .pdf, even in a deployed application.)
Unfortunately, this will also display the .pdf file as it is created, which may not be the intended behavior for a deployed application.
UPDATE: Turns out if you use docview(), you can avoid having anything display when you convert from .docx to .pdf:
docview('whateverYourFileHappensToBeNamed.docx','convertdocxtopdf','closeapp');
It is possible that this will not work on Linux (and maybe Mac); in any case, I haven't tested in those environments.

It's probably fine to keep it on this thread; definitely if you figure out how to get this to work on Linux, it will likely be helpful for others, too. I wish I could be more help myself, but unfortunately I don't have access to a Linux installation of MATLAB at the moment.
BTW, I think the error you are getting is because 'convertdocxtopdf' is not an option that is allowed on Linux; see the section 'Option' on this page of the documentation: https://www.mathworks.com/help/rptgen/ug/docview.html#bvd_jkj-option

This does not work when using a Table of Contens, it just gets deleted. Any fix for that?

Hi, are you using MATLAB Report Generator? Because you can generate PDF. Alternatively, Can't you just save the Word document as PDF through MS Word?
