The new feature Export to PDF appears to be just a screen capture of each report - whatever is currently being shown on the screen is what is captured in the pdf. When a report has a Table or Matrix visualization on it with rows that scroll beyond what is shown, these are not captured in the pdf. Need to have all the data show up in the pdf.

Paginated Reports support multi-page exports, to learn more: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/end-user-paginated-report

I see it says decline next to the post. Does it mean Microsoft has refused the suggestion and won't be doing anything about this?

This is really needed. It is really not understandable, that we have to do all development once again in paginated reports

I agree. This is very much required.

RE: Export to PDF needs to include all rows in a Table or Matrix visualization

Declined??? This is absolutely ridiculous. My shop has been using Oracle's OBIEE for many years and i am migrating them to PBI. How can Oracle export a report to a PDF and show all the data, and for that matter, their export to Excel has better functionality than PBI. I am a big fan of PBI, and there is some far out functionality available, but there are far too many basic "blocking and tackling" functions missing.Oh, and by the way, paginated reports are FAR from a viable solution.

Yes this needs to be fixed! What good is it to be able to export to PDF or powerpoint if the report is truncated? And paginated reports is all well and good, but I'm trying to generate a PDF of a report that someone else built. It shouldn't be this difficult.

I created a powrrbi report for my users,:they comeback to me and asked: how can we scroll to the next page? My answer was you can't: it is only a snapshot of visible pages.Their feedback was quite telling: you can aseell not sent it,,,what is the point of having a truncated report?It's a shame !
