I work in a big insurance company and due to security reasons, we can't upload anything to the cloud / the power BI web services.
However, we love and use the Power Bi desktop to create beautiful internal reports. but we need to share them internally with slides.
we need a way to export reports directly from the power BI desktop to PowerPoint (without publishing the report to the web)

This is a must have feature for all the analysts in my team and will love to have your support on that.

Please implement export to PDF and PowerPoint in PowerBI Desktop, that's a must have!

I don't know why this is not implemented! It's a basic functionality!!! You should be able to download to PDF and PowerPoint from Desktop and with unlimited amount of pages (not 15!). Also, there shouldn't be any restrictions to the amount of data downloaded to Excel. You're Microsoft, so why do you restrict within your own applications?!

Export to PDF and Power Point need to be added to the desktop app

This should really be a functionality that is already in Power BI... It is available on most other MS products and other visualization products (e.g: Tableau). Would be great to get this developed.

Exporting to PDF is essential. The competition already has this! Exporting to PowerPoint or other MS products is a feature that should exist as well.

OMG - I just realized this is not available! My work for the last 2 weeks is unusable unless it is in PowerPoint. I guess I shouldn't assume but...my boss is gonna kill me :-(

Indeed, a print feature with customisation option is a must. We cannot upload sensitive data to the cloud just to generate a report as pdf. To increase the buy-in to use the PBI platform the print feature of PBI Desktop would help us a lot.
