Introduction

Power BI is a relatively new product in the field of BI and it is evolving. Each month there is a new update which makes the product more intuitive with more and more options over time. Last December one of the most awaited features became available, i.e., the option to print reports in PDF format. This was one of the most awaited features and now that it is out, we will be learning about how to do it.
We will begin with the assumption that the reports are already in the dashboard in the Power BI portal. Now the next step is to have the charts and reports pinned on to the dashboard as per your requirement. Remember: The PDF will be in the same format as you put it on the Dashboard.
To print the PDF report, follow the following steps.
1. Pin and arrange the reports in the form that you wish to print.

6. Now you will get the following new window for various options to print the dashboard. You can directly print it through a printer. But for our purposes we will save the report in PDF format.
7. To save the report as a PDF, you will need to select Microsoft Print to PDF as a printer option.
8. You will also see options such as, page orientation, pages to print, scale of the report, and header, and footer. Select option as required.
