Issue with PNG Image Transparency and Background Color in Power BI Report Builder PDF Export
- 1 year ago
Hi mshao ,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.Since PDF exports can handle transparency inconsistently, especially when flattening the image, you can only resolve this by removing transparency from the PNG image and using images with a solid colors.

Your issue is rooted in how pdf and jpg handle transparency, when a transparent PNG is added to a PDF, the transparency layer is often flattened (merged with a solid background color), leading to unexpected results in appearance.
PDFs do support transparency, but it is not handled in the same way and as well as PNG.
