Improved PDF Exporting of Dashboards

I have created a dashboard that I would like to export to PDF to share to people that do not necessarily have Smartsheet and more importantly don't want to open links/attachments to get "quick glance" data.

When I print as PDF I loose a lot of formatting and can't centre the data across the page. without customising margins.

Being able to export Dashboards would be a brilliant tool to have with multiple out put types, like slide, document and email. Adjusting standard sizing and formatting points to suite each output types.

    We take screenshots of dashboards to put in decks; this is necessary for different use cases where we need to share dashboard in different ways and can't just use the live/dashboard version.

    This becomes pixelated and does not look sharp. Would like way to export dashboard graphics to other platforms in a way that maintains image sharpness.

    I've noticed lots of posts like this. Many of us need to print or save to pdf and the formatting options aren't great. Translating a dashboard to a readable print version is one of my biggest pain points.

  • Please implement this.
    Thanks.

    I agree. I have a similar issue at my organization where not everyone has access to Smartsheet and often dislike opening links.

  • If we can at the very least get font sizing that would be tremendous

    My organization still heavily utilizes PowerPoint, so it would be great if we could export our Smartsheet dashboards into PowerPoint instead of having to take screenshots of each section of the dashboard and paste it into PPT.

    Not sure if this is the right place but I want to suggest an improvement.

    In a dashboard when you print, you have a table that flows onto multiple pages. We cannot include the column headers at the top of the pages.

    This is important for proper business and quality documentation and should be standard.
