Why is the text truncating when I export a paginated report to pdf?

Time:11-19

I have been working on a paginated report via report builder/power bi. When previewing the report in report builder, everything looks fine. When I export to word format, everything looks fine. When I export to PDF, any text that exceeds one line in the report gets truncated.

Sample images of the report are seen here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Developer/Paginated-Reports-gt-Text-Truncates-when-using-quot-Export-to/m-p/2178696#M32800

I want to mention that the "can grow" property was mentioned in other threads and it is turned on and works everywhere other than in PDF exporting from what I can see, so I am hoping someone else has seen this issue?

Edit: Further testing confirms that this only happens when the textbox is within a container and only with rectangles to break into multiple pages.The rectangle has 10 different textboxes of varying sizes and the ones at the top / first page grow properly while the text boxes on page 2 only expand to the size of the textbox.

CodePudding user response:

When using tablix with a rectangle wrapped around multiple textboxes that expand to multiple pages, adding a 2nd rectangle to encapsulate the page 2 items seems to prevent this from happening (no truncation on page two text box items).
