Storytelling - Show as Saved Image (Poor Image Resolution)
JoeCronk One of my client I also use it the same way and complained about low res, not sure if there is a solution for it except you capture the image by external tools and then embed it but that defeat the purpose.
parry2k - After some futher testing, the issue appears to happen when you first export the report from the Power BI Service using the “Embed live data” option, and then change it to use the “Show as Saved Image” option in PowerPoint. However, if you use the Export > PowerPoint > Embed an image option instead, it seems to provide a nice high-quality image in PowerPoint. This obviously isn’t as slick as the other option, and requires you to export the report pages as images each time you need to provide your stakeholders with updated data. It's odd that coverting a live connection to a saved image in PowerPoint produces a low-quality image, when it produces a high-quality image when exporting the page to an image directly out of the PBI Service. Hopefully this is something that Microsoft will address in a future release.
