PDF Export exports data using native PDF format, where it attempts to match the exported characters as closely to the onscreen characters as possible. However, due to the variation in supported characters and formatting in varying font families, the onscreen and the exported PDF fonts might not match. For more information, see PDF Fonts.

Info Visual Analytics tries to preserve the same aspect ratio as that of the onscreen view of the chart because of which, the size of the Visual Analytics window and the chosen paper size can effect page splitting. When you leave this option unchecked, Visual Analytics might split the chart into multiple pages in the exported PDF file. To achieve best results, we recommend that you resize the Visual Analytics window appropriately and choose the appropriate paper size for the charts.
