Hi @fabioconfalonieri ,
Great question, there is not a dedicated function to export data and the graph into one PDF at this time, however here’s a work around that might help you achieve something similar:
You can use a Combo Button object to take a screen hardcopy and save that to a USB or transfer that .JPG via FTP.
You can pair that with the Data Sampling object and export the data via .XLS or .XLSX.
This may or may not be applicable for your situation, but another option, that can export as a .PDF, is the Operation Log. The Operation Log records user’s operation steps and records them in real time.

Thank you for your quick response.
Instead, can I use the macro? My goal is to have a single button on the HMI that triggers a 24-hour data collection, after that a single PDF is generated containing a data table along with graphical images (temperature and pressure charts)
You can definitely use a macro to trigger the Data Sampling/Operation Log i mentioned above. You’ll want to use system register LB-9034 for the data sampling object or the operation log to initiate the data storage process.
As for the, Combo Button, there isn’t a way to call that bit from a macro. In this situation it ma be best to use our PLC Control object. The PLC Control has the same screen hardcopy feature, that you can trigger via macro.
