Print / Save as PDF adjusts page background

Hello,

 

In the PowerBI service, when users try to save as PDF (via print menue) or print to printer, the page background moves and causes the report to look quite messy. Just wondering if there is a workaround/known issue with this? In the example below you will see my background that separates the visuals on top / slicers on the side / matrix on the bottom. Then on the print menu, the separations get shifted way off to the bottom right.

 

Thank you

Hi @awhiteway,

 

The image shared by you isn't very clear. In your scenario, you can try Chrome browser and enable Background Graphics to print background color.

But please not, we cannot guarantee that the printed copy will be exactly the same as it appears in Power BI service. Things like scaling, margins, visual details, orientation, and size are not controlled by Power BI. For help with issues like this, refer to the documentation for your specific browser. See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-print
