    I just ran a quick test and export to PDF with respecting filters appears to be fixed. This issue has happened at least once or twice per year for the last 3 years.

I don't understand how this could be true: "Microsoft closed our support ticket saying for now this was expected behavior" considering that there is a button which the user selects if they want current/default values?

To quote the response we had

 

As discussed, export to PDF is working as expected when persistent filters is disabled from report settings in power bi desktop and published.

This is expected behavior of this feature  in service with latest releases.

Please be assured that this behavior is already reported to product team as feedback.

They are working on it to bring back to its old behavior but there is no ETA as of now.

Let us know if you have any further queries , we are happy to help you on the same.
