PDF import

[Anonymous]

Hello all,

I want to show a pdf in my report as its is. The pdf has images and text.

Is there a way to atttach a pdf in power BI

PS: I'am not talking about the importing functionality through R. I've already tried that and it does not serve my purpose.

HI @Anonymous,

Do you mean direct import PDF contents to power bi report(same as import excel workbook)?
If that is a case, current power bi not support import this type, you can consider to convert PDF to excel workbook before import.

Hi @Anonymous,

I'am talking about a screenshot of the exact pdf. My pdf has images and text in random format. There is no table.

Is there a way to show the pdf as it is in power bi?

As I said, import feature not support pdf file. PDF connector seems only support to analytic data as table format.

You can try to transform PDF file to excel workbook to import image contents to power bi desktop.
