Creating a paginated report
Paginated reporting is another style of reporting than the interactive reports you can produce with Power BI. Paginated reports are reports that are meant to be consumed in a tightly controlled way. Often, this is referred to as "pixel perfect" because it allows reports to be rendered onscreen and printed on pages without losing the fidelity of the original design made by the report designer. Paginated reports are not meant to be interactive like typical Power BI reports.
Paginated reports can have headers and footers on every page and typically follow the design of reports that have been created for decades by enterprises and organizations using tools such as SQL Server Reporting Services.
When report requirements include user stories such as printing reports, or the data being displayed often includes dozens of columns or perhaps hundreds of rows of data, then it's typically a good idea to explore the use of Power BI paginated reports...
