    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

    For those of you on a Mac, I noticed after the latest Desktop release, that in the portal you now have the option to print the dashboard and also to print a single page. The dashboard print seems to squish it all one page as well. Bizarrely these options do not appear in Windows but if you right click and choose Print in I.E. Or Edge you get a blank page but it does work in Chrome for Windows.

    Any idea how much longer before we can print reports in Power BI?

    Without printing and/or export it's a non-starter

    PDF is a must. Financial departments generally require financial data to be printed as a PDF (or hardcopy) as a 'snapshot in time' is vital to ensure that there are no discrepancies for future reporting.
