How to Split Dashboards into Multiple Pages in Dashboard Studio for PDF Downloads?

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a dashboard in Dashboard Studio and need some guidance on exporting it as a PDF. Specifically, I would like to know how to split a multi-panel dashboard into several pages when downloading it as a PDF.

Is there a way to configure the layout or settings to achieve this? Any tips or best practices for organizing content in Dashboard Studio to ensure each section appears on a separate PDF page would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Unfortunately no. The dashboard studio PDF export function will put the entire dashboard on a single page. The older XML dashboards could at least split their exported PDFs into pages.

You may find some success in exporting the dashboard studio PDF as a single page, then "print to PDF" with the "Page Sizing" set to "Poster". This should split your single-page PDF to a multi-page PDF, but it will likely take a lot of trial-and-error to get the formatting right.

Another workaround is to have multiple dashboards (Part1,Part2,Part3 ... etc) and export PDFs for each of them, then combine them by printing them all to a single PDF.
