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.

In addition to the support we have for paginated reports already, we have started the work to support this for Power BI reports and expect it to land by the end of the calendar year in the Power BI service. Like for paginated reports, it will be a Premium feature and will be available to customers with either Premium capacity or if you have the new Premium per user license, which will be available at no cost to all users during the public preview period. You can read more about getting priority access to the public preview for your tenant at this link - https://powerbi.microsoft.com/blog/priority-access-sign-up-for-power-bi-premium-per-user-public-preview-now-available/

Thanks for the update. We would love to see exporting PDFs via Power BI subscriptions instead of just png files.

RE: scheduled export of a report to pdf

Just two add my two cents, this could be huge for us, although I can see there are numerous issues with the implementation, e.g., how it works w/ RLS and Security Groups, whether specific Bookmarked versions of reports can be set up for PDF/email distribution, etc. I think the tables/scrolling issue is a red herring: I would expect we'd have to set up reports so all relevant data appear on the canvass without scrolling - a PDF obviously cannot display records which are not visible on the canvass.
