Printing Issue

Anonymous — Mon, 25 Oct 2021 17:00:20 GMT

Currently I have all my Power BI dashboards set at "Fit to page" and the page size under the type is "16:9" . Is it possible when I export or eventually print in PDF to have the page scale down directly to "8.5:11" without having to remake all my pages under the width and height pixels for 8.5 by 11? Basically I want to do it like in PowerPoint where it would automatically scale sizing depending on print size. Are there any work arounds? Is this possible? Or do I need to re make my pages ??? Thanks!

Preferrably it would be done on desktop as opposed to web service

Hi @Anonymous

I have a test to try to change the page size from 16:9 to custom size when I print report in Power BI Service. It seems that we couldn't do that when we print the report. We need to change the page size in page pane in Power BI Desktop or Edit the report in Power BI Service.

When I export the report to PDF or Power Point, it works well, I couldn't see blue line in my export file.

Here are some offical blogs about how to export reports or print reports.

For reference:
