The new feature Export to PDF appears to be just a screen capture of each report - whatever is currently being shown on the screen is what is captured in the pdf. When a report has a Table or Matrix visualization on it with rows that scroll beyond what is shown, these are not captured in the pdf. Need to have all the data show up in the pdf.

I agree with this request - it would be extremely useful to have this to avoid exporting to csv and then trying to save that excel workbook as a PDF. Having the clean formatting of a PBI table in its entirety as a PDF would bring a ton of value

I agree, Export to PDF seems just to be a screenshot so it is of very limited value. All data must be accessible.

RE: Export to PDF needs to include all rows in a Table or Matrix visualization

Agreed! Right now the export function is hardly useful. Also I tried to find an add-on for Chrome that could capture the Power BI scroll page but nothing works well...
