Hi AntonioM ,

 

According to my knowledge, this may be due to the limitation of the Export to PDF feature, please consider the following scenarios:

  • Reports with unusual custom page sizes may experience issues in export scenarios. For best results, consider switching to a standard page size for your report.
  • When exporting to PDF, reports using themes with custom fonts will have the custom font replaced with a default font.
  • While we look to provide a consistent experience, we can't guarantee the exported PDF from the Power BI service will always match the exported PDF from a local Power BI Desktop file.

For more considerations and limitations, please refer to：

    Hi, v-jianboli-msft 

     

    Thank you for your reply. I have read through the limitations listed but in my example I tried to remove as many of these factors as I could. I've created a brand new file and used only default canvas size, visuals and fonts but unfortunately this still happens.

     

    It does only seem to be happening with tables/matrices so we will keep exporting from desktop where we need to.
