The following techniques can be used to add branding and images to Power BI Paginated Reports:
Adding Visuals (Icons, Logos, etc.):
Image Control: To include images in your report, drag and drop a "Image" control from Power BI Report Builder's toolbox. This enables the embedding of static images, such as custom graphics or logos.
File-Based Images: By choosing an image file (such as a PNG or JPG) from your local system or network location, you can import images straight into your report.
Using expressions to load images from URLs or data fields gives you more dynamic control. This allows you to load images based on data-driven content or user-specific parameters.
Using Custom Fonts for Branding:
Custom Fonts in Text Boxes: You can format text boxes in Power BI Paginated Reports using custom fonts, colors, and sizes. Certain fonts that complement your company's branding can be chosen.
Embedding Custom Fonts: Using the right font file, you can embed custom fonts for more sophisticated branding; however, this feature necessitates specific report server configuration.
Making Use of the Report Header and Footer:
Headers/Footers for Branding: You can include logos, taglines, or other brand components in the paginated report's header or footer section to ensure consistent branding across all pages. This will appear on each page of the report.
Dynamic Headers: These components can also be made dynamic, changing in response to user input or data-driven
Background Colors and Images:
Background Images: In addition to logos, you can set an image or color as the background for the report or specific report sections. This helps create a branded visual identity that aligns with corporate guidelines.
Solid Color Backgrounds: You can choose solid or gradient colors to customize the background of report sections, text boxes, and tables to match your company's color scheme.
Data-Driven Branding:
Conditional Formatting: You can use conditional formatting to alter the appearance of text, backgrounds, or images based on data. This allows for dynamic branding, such as showing different logos or colors based on the data values.
