    Please add the capability to export Report Server PowerBI reports to formats like pdf, word, powerpoint. Some of this functionality exists in the service but please add it to Report Server.

    We'd hoped we'd have a good way to bring this functionality to the server - however, after a lengthy evaluation of all the options and required investments, we're not planning to bring this feature to the server at this time. As a workaround, we suggest using the Export to PDF capabilities in Power BI Desktop for Report Server.

    Very discouraging. And the PBRS from ChristianSteven Software appears to be expensive for smaller operations.

    With this feature being closed is there anyway to export/print multi-page reports to PDF without using the desktop app?

    As an alternative, try a third party tool like PBRS by ChristianSteven Software. It allows you to schedule and automate the export and delivery of Power BI & SSRS reports to pdf, excel, word, powerpoint and so on. You can send them to email, disk, SharePoint, Dropbox, Slack, Google Sheets, Google Drive, FTP etc.

    NOOO!!

    If this is not introduced, then please make sure the printing functionality does improve so pictures and colours is printed as PDF properly.

    Can we be able to select tabs within a report that we want to export to PDF. May not want to export all tabs of a report to PDF.

    We have a number of PowerBI reports with several tabs that we need to be able to print to PDF from the browser. We'd like the functionality to be comparable to that in the service where we can click "export to pdf" and all pages are printed to a PDF, without our users having to print each page individually.

    The admin comment from 5/17/2018 indicated that this was planned - what is the status on it? How soon will this be available?
