Printing filters on canvas

Hi,

 

When I export a few tabs from Power BI to PDF I would like to add a page (first tab) with the filters that were used on that repport. Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Lucy

Hi, @lucypl 

The built-in export PDF function in Power BI Desktop imports all visible pages. You can export specific pages by hiding the tabs/pages you don't want included in the PDF. Once you hide these pages, then they will not appear in the PDF.

Here is an alternative:
Export your report as PPT in Power BI Service. You can delete unwanted pages in PowerPoint and then export to PDF.

By exporting the report as PPT, you can freely decide which pages you want to export to PDF and the order in which they should be displayed in the PDF. If the above suggestions can help you, that would be great.
