How do I export full report in Export To Pdf from PowerBI Desktop
I have a Matrix with say 200 rows, 50 can fit on screen and I can scroll up or down to see all the rows
When I export to pdf, it looks as if it is only exporting the 50 rows that are visible on the screen
This is of no use as full report cannot be seen
How do I set up the Export To Pdf so it always export all the rows

Hi @will2018
As tested, the 'export to pdf' option is currently just like taking a screen capture of each report.
To export all rows of the matrix, it is poosible to use "export to excel" for the matrix visual, but it is limited for Export Data feature is used for exporting data without keeping visual format in .CSV file currently.
Here is an idea you could vote for it to improve this feature.
Export to PDF needs to include all rows in a Table or Matrix visualization
Best Regards
Maggie
Thanks Maggie for your reply
Is there any tool (3rd prty or otherwise) where I can export visualisations to Csv or Excel
The options provided as standard are so poor that they proabably should not be included
Export to Pdf.....seems its just a screen dump...should be renamed Screen Dump
Export to Csv ...it is limited by no. of rows or size..should be renamed Very Limited Export to Csv
Is there any other way at all of eporting visualisations in the free version of Power Bi Desktop ?
Is the feature available now? Or is there any workaround. Anyone help Pls!
