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

It would be great if the pin feature could allow for ... Pin to dashboard or copy chart (ie. to paste into another source. It is also imperative to be able to print the full dashboard with clean borders etc...

What I really want to do is Print. However, export to PDF would be good enough.

RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

at the moment using IE/Edge if I try to print a report page showing the filter section actually containing filters, it would fail to print the report content. can this be fixed?

also printing from Chrome just doesn't print the entire report page at all

RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

Being able to export parts of the dashboard, copy and paste sections into excel, word, power point is a must. Otherwise PBI will lose momentum and people wont bother to use it...

RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

MPBI is looking good, defintly needs export alternatives, not only the suggested ones, but being abl to copy specific parts of the dashboard to excel or word. When composing reports you want sometimes that tiny bit of infographic here and there

RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

This is a must. We need the ability to print reports or export to PDFs.

RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

Need to optimize to be able to print a dashboard that I can present to employees. Without this, I can`t really use the tool!
Thanks.

RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

This would be extremely helpful! The ability to export or print from powerBI wouldd help adoption
