Export to PDF functionality not working in PowerBI service
- 6 years ago
Hi @nithinkaluvala ,
I found a workaround after testing several times. Change view from actual size to fit to page and save as a new report. Then it will show entirely while exporting to PDF.
I used the latest version Power BI Desktop to create a report like yours. But the page don't support to show complete visual if it is large and needs scroll bar. I think maybe you created the report by the old version and it is not compatible in Service. Then it caused the problem. You need to create reports using the latest version of Power BI Desktop to avoid the same issue afterwards.

Hi v-xuding-msft ,
I have tried republishing the report, still have the issue. Infact the issue is with all the reports. I have shared you a dummy pbix file, for which I have already shared the pics in my previous comment.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KXjBezoGo8CgmMDQMcJvXnWEBU7oXt1k/view?usp=sharing
Hi Anonymous ,
The file worked fine when I tested. It stayed filtered after exporting to PDF. Please try to re-install the latest version of Power BI Desktop and publish it again. Moreover, try to change the browser and clear website cache.

Hi v-xuding-msft ,
I have cleared the cache and tried to export the same on multiple browsers, also updated the powerbi desktop to september 2019 version and republished the report. But not able to get the complete report exported. We still have the same problem. Can you please share or attach the screenshot of the PDF that you have exported from powerBI service.
