    Ctrl P does not do a good job of printing the dashboard. Provide a Print button which optimises printing perhaps defaulting to the filters & title on page 1 and the dashboard sheets in landscape on pages 2 to n+1

    RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

    I am curious , Is there any progress on adding export to excel/powerpoint/word feature in Power BI Designer. After all the extraction and analysis, if we cannot share the data output , it defeats the purpose. Hoping to get this at the earliest. Thx

    Users have asked about printing the grids and tables. This would be a good addition for them.

    Scheduling the export would be helpful as this would mimic a report server

    Ability to export the Dashboard & Reports to PDF, PNG with click back URL to the actual report & dashboard so they can be easily shared for offline users.

    This is definitely something that is required, and expected to be available on all Microsoft products!

    RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

    Data collection and transformation are fine and seamless to use BUT how can it be that there is no export functionality into such common file extension as pdf, xls, ppt, docx... thats a no brainer that this is a must as without this its just an isolated data chewing enigne ...

    Printing is also requested.

    Agree BIG TIME! Getting PowerBI report exported to PPT is a must. Need to be able to share data among random people sometimes and screen shot everything is not the way to go. Need an export to PPT so don't need to recreate powerviews 2x, once for PowerBI and once for PPT.

    RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

    Agreed. We need to be able to export the data to CSV/XLS.
