Print multiple reports from powerbi embedded

jaypi — Wed, 22 Aug 2018 22:42:03 GMT

I have an MVC Application built using the Power BI Embedded Javascript which has multiple tabs embedding multiple reports. The report.print only allows printing one of the reports within 1 tab, what is the mechanism to print all the pages embedded in all the tabs.

The window.print function zooms in the report and is unreadable.

Hi @jaypi,

As we can see from the source code of powerbi.js#L3947, I'm afraid it only prints the active page. The workaround could be traversing all the pages and printing them one by one. Please also refer to the live demo.

>>>/**
* Prints the active page of the report by invoking `window.print()` on the embed iframe component.
*/

Best Regards,

Dale

That is sub optimal, expectation is to have a single PDF with all reports. Also sending to a printer 10 pages individually seems 20 years old approach...
