Hi @Domstadfoppe ,
Based on the information you provided, I did a simple test and the images in the PDF display properly.
If the images require authentication or have access restrictions, they may not render in the exported PDF. Please make sure the image URLs are publicly accessible.
Sometimes browser or network settings may interfere with image rendering. Try using a different browser or exporting the PDF from a different network to eliminate these factors.
You can also review the following documentation to ensure that the report meets these guidelines.
