Tableau lets you create terrific visualizations. Once you create them of course you want to share them. There are a number of ways you can do that and in this movie I will show you how to print a visualization to a PDF file. PDF is a very portable format as the name portable document format implies. So it's handy if you want to send your documents but not have any interaction.

First, I can select whether to print…
