Use the PDF View Plugin to generate PDF release notes with a single click. 

It comes with a built-in release notes template, which is more than just an issue list, and can be totally customized. By default, it has all the usual sections (overview, instructions, etc.), and groups the issues by type, but again, you are allowed to rebuild this from scratch.

See this PDF sample or the screenshot below, and check out the plugin page about the features:

@F, you may want to take a look at Automated release notes app for Jira. It is available for Cloud as well as Server versions.

 

Best,

Fahad, you can create using html format and after that save the html to a pdf using Google Chrome. For more information on how to save an html page on Google Chrome in PDF please refer the url below.
