    We should have the option to export a visual as an image. Not only raster images such as bmp, jpg or png, but also vectorial metafiles such as wmf, emf and svg.

    This is independent from the ability to allow visuals to be pasted onto other applications, which was submitted here: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/11698812-copy-screenshot-of-visual-to-clipboard

    This would be a really useful to allow single power bi visuals to be copied into word/ppt.

    I vote one for this too. Its quite inconvenient especially for someone who’s job is to generate reports with Word. Resolution of screen capture is not quite good which you’ll notice when printing the report. Really wish they add a button for the easy copy-paste feature

    This feature is required, in some instance only a part of a graph is required for presentation purposes and prefer if its available in PDF or any image format.
