Design Power BI reports that guide the eye, work for readers with impaired sight, and decide when to build a printed paginated report.
Designing a Power BI report with its users in mind means guiding the eye between visuals with focal points and making the visualizations accessible to readers with impaired sight. The lessons work with the accessibility options and smart narratives in Power BI Desktop, then turn to readying a report for production and deciding when a printed, paginated version serves readers better than a standard one.
What You Will Achieve
- Place focal points so users move naturally between the visuals on a report page.
- Apply Power BI accessibility settings so a report works for visually impaired readers.
- Pick a SKU and configure a report before it goes into production.
- Judge when a paginated report fits the need, then build one with a matrix and a line chart.
Program Overview
Focal Points and Accessibility in Report Design
Shows how a layout leads users between visuals and which built-in options make a report easier to read for people with impaired sight.
- Tracking where focal points fall and why they matter
- Accessibility options for Power BI reports
- Accessibility in practice
- Smart narratives
Production Readiness and Paginated Reports
Covers good practice for getting a report ready for release and the cases where a print-ready paginated report is the better choice.
- SKU selection
- Report configuration before release
- Standard versus paginated report types
- Building a paginated report with a matrix and line chart

Job Outlook
These skills apply wherever Power BI reports are built for other people to read, such as business intelligence and analytics teams that publish interactive dashboards or condensed printed reports for colleagues.
Good for: Analysts who publish Power BI reports for colleagues and want them easier to follow, open to readers with impaired sight, and ready for print.
Keep in mind: The paginated report lessons relate to the PL-300 exam, which is taken separately; the course’s own certificate is a certificate of completion.
Bottom line: A focused two-chapter course on designing Power BI reports around their readers, ending with a paginated report you build yourself.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are paginated reports in Power BI?
They are reports laid out to be printed on paper. They usually carry less information than a standard interactive report and work as a condensed single document that gathers the most important insights in one place.
Do the exercises need Power BI installed on my computer?
No installation is needed. The course mixes concept videos, recorded demonstrations and interactive Power BI exercises, and the software and materials are provided in the browser.
How are focal points used in the course?
Focal points are used to guide users naturally between the visuals on a report page. The first chapter tracks where they fall, explains why they matter, and has you apply them in a report design.
