Lucidchart images in PowerPoint don't print or export to PDF

I have created a PowerPoint slide deck that has a number of LucidChart illustrations in it. When I print the deck or export it as a PDF the LucidChart illustrations are blank. What can I do to get this to work?

    Hi Tom

    Thanks for posting in the Community! Unfortunately it's not currently possible for Lucidchart diagrams embedded through the PowerPoint add-on to exported in PDF format. If this is a functionality you'd like to see supported in the future would you mind submitting a feature request form? Ideas and suggestions submitted through this form are passed directly to our product development team for consideration. As a workaround you should be able to individually insert downloaded images of your Lucidchart diagrams into PowerPoint if you'd like them to render in a PDF export. I apologize for any inconvenience. If you have further questions please let me know.

    any update or solution on this topic? Just ran into the same problem copy-past pictures in a presentation is a rather cumbersome process
