produces = "application/pdf" not working on Spring Boot

I have Spring Boot project and I am using Jasper Report. I posted some json data and response return to me this:

On my rest controller I added to RequestMapping produces = "application/pdf" but it is not working.

@RequestMapping(value = "/gMapReports", method = RequestMethod.POST, produces = "application/pdf")
public ResponseEntity<InputStreamResource> gMapReports(@RequestBody GMapReportRequest gMapReportRequest) {

    return reportService.prepareResponse(reportService.gMapReports(gMapReportRequest));

}

My prepareResponse method:

public ResponseEntity<InputStreamResource> prepareResponse(File reportDocument) {
    FileInputStream fileInputStream = fileStreamConverter.getFileInputStream(reportDocument);

    return ResponseEntity
            .ok()
            .contentLength(reportDocument.length())
            .contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_OCTET_STREAM)
            .header("content-disposition", "filename=report")
            .body(new InputStreamResource(fileInputStream));
}

Just to bring this thread up, if someone is reaching here when getting an error that no suitable converter is found for application/pdf.
Check if you are using the @RepositoryRestController annotation.
If that is the case, try to switch to @RestController.

Adding code produces = {"application/pdf"} works for me. Full example:

@RequestMapping(value = "/pdfFile", method = RequestMethod.POST, produces = {"application/pdf"})
@ResponseBody
public FileSystemResource getFile(@ModelAttribute PdfFile pdfFile) {
    PdfFileGenerator pdfFileGenerator = new PdfFileGeneratorImpl();
    File file = pdfFileGenerator.generatePdf(pdfFile);
    return new FileSystemResource(file);
}
