Live Power BI report in PowerPoint: low resolution when exporting to PDF
I have a PowerPoint presentation with a live Power BI report embbeded. When I try to export it to PDF or print it, the images turn out ok, but the Power BI page loses quality and becomes pixelated. Is there any way to solve this? I´ve tried using the native "Export to PDF" from PowerPoint and "Print to PDF", but both result in quality loss. High quality print and minimal compression are already selected in Advanced Options.
Check the attatchments for an example. One file shows a screenshot of the PowerPoint presentation, where the Power BI report looks just fine. The other one shows the exported PDF, where the report becomes pixelated.

Curious if there's been an answer to this one? I have the same issue where the powerpoint add-in looks fine but loses resolution in pdf. I've turned off compression, downsizing, etc. but still hasn't fixed the issue.
