Not through the Data Inspector, but you can set up a workflow in Workbench that uses a PDF writer. You'll need to position your data and other elements on the page using the PDFPageFormatter

"The FME Data Inspector isn’t designed to be a form of GIS or mapping application. It has no all-around analysis functionality, and the tools for symbology modification and printing are rudimentary and intended for data validation rather than producing map output."
