Unable to Export All Data to PDF on Dashboards with Scroll Bars

Publish Date: Feb 23, 2026
Description
When you try to export to PDF from a dashboard that includes scroll bars, the resulting PDF might include only visible data.

Cause

By design, when using a dashboard, only the part of the view shown on the screen can be exported to PDF.
Resolution
Use one of the following workarounds.

Option 1:

Export to PDF (print to PDF) from a worksheet rather than a dashboard. You can do this on Tableau Server, Tableau Cloud, or Tableau Desktop.

Option 2:

  1. Open the dashboard on Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud, and then click Edit.
  2. Select the download icon located in the icon ribbon and select PDF.
  3. In the Export PDF dialog box, make the following selections, and then click Download:
  • Layout: Portrait
  • Content: Sheets in Dashboard
  • Paper Size: Unspecified
  • Scaling: Automatic
 
Additional Resources
Subscribing to a dashboard view with scroll bars in the PDF format will not display the data with scroll bars.
