Print as PDF?
brendaivett The out of box functionality doesn't support that from the Desktop. The print option is only available from the Power BI Service.

I have an issue that it only print my dashboard at 5% scaled down. Would you please help.
AndrewDang What browser are you using? I don't see the "Scale" option. What happens if you increase that? Chrome, IE, Edge - I can't get that to display, and the functionality works in all.
If it isn't that, is the report page a custom size, or just default?

I had tried both Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. I had the same issue with both.
Thanks;

Hi, Unless I am mistaken and I hope I am as we have been waiting for this option. What I see is this print option is just a fancy print screen. It does not actually print the visuals with their data. Example, if you have a matrix table with more rows than what will fit on the screen, you only get the printed view of what fit on the screen. While I suppose for graphical representations this is good, but for data and graphical, it is not very helpful. I thought the print option would be more like printing from Excel, too wide, extra pages, too long extra pages. It seems this option should expose to the visuals a print option method as they have data set. Seems it would be hard (probably not impossible) to do it generically. Does anyone know if Tableau or the other "data visualization" software allows printing? Thanks, Rick
I saved a report from Power BI to PDF by clicking "Ctrl and P" keys. I was on my desktop version.
