Hello,
It seems strange that "Power BI Report Builder" that should be the "pixel perfect" report builder as Microsoft states in "DA-100" class, will render pages differently when in "report view" and "print layout".
As long as in the report definition I set the "Report Properties"\"Page Setup" to a certain size, I expect that when rendering, the header/footer display the correct information - especially the page number.
A simple test, using the step by step instructions from here: da-100-13a_instructions.md (https://github.com/MicrosoftLearning/DA-100-Analyzing-Data-with-Power-BI/blob/master/Instructions/Labs/da-100-13a_instructions.md) will render a 43 rows on Page 1 in "report view" resulting a 2 page report, but in "print layout" will render 27 rows on Page 1 resulting a 3 page report.
In other Microsoft applications, l like Word, if switch to a "web view", at least will not show header/footer with confusing information.
So, is it possible to make RDL/PDF rendering "closer" to each other in Report Builder?
Kind Regards,
Lucian
