In Interactive Reporting Studio, you can add reports to the list of objects to print or export from a frame. These reports may not be a printer-friendly version of a dashboard; however, you may want to print reports to exclude dashboard elements such as the button bar. By design, only objects that are dragged onto a frame can be printed or exported from frames. As reports in these earlier releases cannot be dragged onto the frames, these sections are not typically available from the print or export drop-down lists.
To manually add reports to the list of printable or exportable objects:
In Interactive Reporting Studio, press Ctrl+D to enter Design mode.
Create a dummy section.
For example, a chart, pivot, or table (with no columns added).
Drag the dummy section onto the dashboard frame from which to print or export reports.
Double-click the section.
Enter a name.
Repeat steps 1–5, to configure a dummy section for each report to print or export, and give each section a unique name.
Select a dummy section, shrink it to the smallest size, and send it to the back of the frame.
In Dashboard Studio, navigate to Step 4: Associate Frames with Charts, Pivots, or Tables.
From Frames and Embedded Objects, select a report, to associate with the dummy section.
Select One Section, on the right of Step 4: Associate Frames with Charts, Pivots, or Tables, is displayed.
Ensure Allow Printing of Object and Allow Export of Object are selected.
After all dummy reports are associated, click
to apply selections to the dashboard.The reports are available when
or 
is clicked to print or export.
