Export to PDF - wrong page size

[Brendan42]

Morning all, I have a report for which I've set the Canvas settings on each of the pages to enable exporting to A4 portrait (image below). However when I view the report in a browser and "Export - PDF" I get a file with two different page sizes. The first page is A4 sized, but the second is A3. I've double-checked and the canvas sizes on all the pages are identical. I must be missing something, any help appreciated?

When converting to PDF in the new version of Power BI, there is an issue of incomplete pages?

One possible solution is to re-try generating the PDFs. Select View -> Page view -> Fit to Page in the dashboard before publishing. This worked for me.

I tried changing the Canvas Settings as suggested above and then also made the changes by adding a New Page and copying the visuals to a new page but when exporting to PDF, it came in wrong size.

Changing the Page View to Fit to Page/Fit to Width/Actual Size did not help as well.

One alternate fix i found was by uploading the report to My Workspace and from there you can export the report in either PDF File/PowerPoint File.

Hello Community Members,

I tried customizing the Canvas Settings and also created a New Page and copy pasted the visuals from original sheet but still the Export prints the pdf only half the visual.

Hi @Brendan42 ,

Reports with unusual custom page sizes may experience issues in export scenarios. For best results, consider switching to a standard page size for your report.

Thanks for the info Stephen. Those first two pages were originally created as 16:9, with widgets added to that page, then resized to 1123x794 and widgets moved/resized to fit. I wonder if that was the cause of the problem?

I've now resolved my issue by just recreating a blank page for each one, setting to 1123x794 and copy/pasting directly from the affected pages. Deleted old pages and now they all print in A4.

An update. Using Power BI Desktop...

Before	After
Page 1: A4 as expected	Page 1: Now A3!
Page 2: A3	Page 2: Still A3
	Page 3: Added blank page, same canvas sizes, copy/pasted from Page 2 to Page 3, exports as A4, no problem there now.
