This is a known limitation with PDF/visual exports in GoodData. The export acts as a
"screenshot" of the dashboard and will display content exactly as it appears on screen — it does not automatically scale or fit wide/long content.
Why this happens:
Exported PDFs, PNGs, and slide decks capture the dashboard as it currently renders. If a table (including a repeater table) is too wide or long to fit within the visible area, the export will truncate or cut off the content rather than scaling it to fit. [

Workarounds to try:
1.
Manually resize the visualization — Adjust the width and height of the repeater table widget within the dashboard so the full content is visible before exporting. [

2.
Reduce the number of columns — If possible, limit the columns displayed so the table fits within the visible dashboard area.
3.
Use tabular export instead — Rather than a visual/PDF export, export the widget as
XLSX or CSV to get the full underlying data without truncation. Individual widgets can be exported as tabular data (XLSX/CSV). [

4.
Schedule tabular exports — If this is for recurring reports, you can set up scheduled exports of the widget as XLSX/CSV directly from the visualization. [

Note: There is currently no built-in feature to automatically scale or fit wide tables to the export format. The knowledge sources do not specifically mention repeater tables, so if the issue behaves differently from a standard table truncation, I'd recommend reaching out to GoodData support with a direct link to the dashboard for further investigation. 👍 0 button 👎 0 button ℹ️
