How to print or send a dashboard via email that contains tables with scroll bars?

I have a dashboard where the user types an input using the Text Filter visualization to populate tables with filtered data. Sometimes the tables contain a scroll bar since all the data doesn't fit within the visualization.

 

Is there a way to export a printable (or sendable via email) version that contains all the rows of data without the scroll bar? If I export as a PDF, it just takes a screenshot with the scrollbar still there.

Here is the basic layout of my dashboard (with the data hidden):

Hi @brandonab 

Unfortunately, it isn't available in the export options of power bi.

You can use paginated reports to achieve this goal or some workarounds like in the linked discussion :

more information about paginated reports is here:
