Printing Calendar (or Export to PDF)

I can view my calendar on the web and that shows the activities, times and distances and then shows the monthly total distance at the bottom (with weekly totals at the end of each week).

This is excellent.

I will be seeing my orthopaedic consultant for a follow-up soon and it would be good if I could print the calendar view and/or save it as a PDF so he can see my progress and the daily workouts.

Can we have this functionality added?

The Reports only show one measurement so you cannot combine number of activities, distance and time on one graph, for instance.

Printing to PDF is natively available in most OS'es. I just tested it with the calendar, to see whether there is a problem problem with it, and did not find any. If on Windows, simply press Ctrl-P while on the calendar page, and select "Save as PDF" in the printer list. I am not well familiar with Macs, but I bet it is equally simple on an Apple computer as well.

...except that produces a very sub-optimal output: it shows the menu bar down the side; it prints 3 pages on Safari and only one on Firefox with at least a week's data missing.

If you use Chrome or Edge, have a look at the extension GoFullPage - it creates a nicely formatted full length screenshot, and allows you to save it as PDF as well. And it also allows you to crop the page, so that you can remove the footer or the side menu too.

If not, there are similar tools available also for other browsers, though I only tested this one, and the built-in Edge Web Capture that did not work that well: How to Capture a Scrolling Screenshot in Windows - Make Tech Easier

Thanks for all that, but how many hoops to go through?

Garmin offer an Export function for the Reports, although this is only in CSV format.

Sorry, just trying to help, and cannot do any better. This is a user forum, so we can only offer you available solutions. For anything more, try suggesting it to Garmin: Share Ideas | Garmin

BTW, this is a sample output from the GoFullPage extension (posting just a reduced resolution, the original is perfectly readable, of course):

That's pretty good!

Thanks.
