Preview of PDF export is buggy
Hello! When I want to export a dashboard as PDF, the preview looks quite bad.
On top of that, it's as if the actual PDF export has a different "canvas size" or screen resolution or whatever, because some visuals that appear with scrollbars in the preview, don't have those scrollbars in the actual PDF.
Ideally, the exported PDF and its preview would be exactly what I'm looking at on my screen, so is there a way I can "design in PDF mode"?

Gonzalo,
Weird. The preview should look the same. We are taking a look.

Hey Jay.
Yeah, it definitely is different from both what I see when designing it and from what I end up seeing in the PDF. Component placement is not the only thing that changes, either: some visualizations appear with a scrollbar in the preview (scrollbars are a no-no, of course) but no scrollbar in the end result! So every small change I make, I have to actually export the PDF to see if it looks alright or not.
Nothing too serious, of course, but clearly the preview has different settings than the actual PDF generator.
