Power BI Service Query

Suppose I have created a Power BI report and published it to a workspace (not a Premium workspace), using a Power BI Pro license . In this case, do the users who want to access the report also need a Power BI Pro license to view it, or can they use a Power BI Free license to view the report, apply filters, and download it as a PDF or PowerPoint?
