It would be nice if there is an option to have a scheduled export of a report to PDF. A nice to have feature would be to directly e-mail it to people so they are being notified of the latest report.

Another update on this item - users now have the ability to set up scheduled subscriptions with paginated reports and 6 different formats, along with parameters per subscription to allow further personalization. There is also now the ability to create paginated reports against any Power BI dataset in the service, and we're planning to add drillthrough from Power BI to Paginated Reports in the short term. We still have plans to support e-mail attachments for Power BI reports as well in the coming months, and we'll share more specifics once we get closer to starting that work.

Any Updates on this? Last touched in October of 2017... Lots of implementations for this.

How can this be outstanding for more than a year? I just had a customer decline the use of Power BI because it can't print a multi page visualization this is just a huge miss. Clients need to print reports to quote John Oliver "How can this be a thing"

Including a company logo in the pdf is mandatory company branding policy.

In power bi there should be option to download dashboard to PDF in online version like Tableau. Although i can take screen shot but quality is not good. It would be more better in power bi desktop that if user can export there dashboard or charts into adobe illustrator or vectored image

Please, please add this. NAV connectivity to web service is troublesome at best and as
such export from desktop would be really great.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
not just from power bi desktop but also from powerbi.com
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Please, please, please... Do this.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Agreed, the printing experience is so poor that it is a deal breaker for my business stream. They love the reports in PBI, and they want to print them out. But this is really not working well. The save as PPT is good, but that doesn't work when embedded, and with custom visuals it doesn't work at all. So there is plenty of room for improvement here.
RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf
Printing from the desktop app would be a huge benefit. It would also be good to be able to use it in an enterprise context without the heavy enterprise guts, for users who are tied into other solution and system architectures.

Another thought; Excel is fantastic at making nice looking charts, hopefully PBI can leverage some of this strength.
The charts printed from the web interface look alright, but the pdfs suffer a bit.
