Apply Custom Font in Power BI

Hi Experts,

 

I read many article that Power BI is not currently kind to apply custom font and the most useful visual, "HTML visual" is not available on marketplace anymore.

 

After checked many docs, some said d3.js visual can show custom font.

But I do not know how to make it work.

 

I just want to write simple text with it not graph or something.

If anyone knows how to show a text with custom font with d3.js, please give me any idea.

 

Or, other way that can apply custom font in Power BI will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

    After I tested many theme with JSON file, I knew that even though the font has installed with tts file in my windows,

    all font is not applied in Power BI and much more limitation in my language.

     

    I feel sad that it is hard to make report fancy with text font.

    looking forward there is great leverage about this soon.

     

    Thanks.

      Thanks, Eason.

       

      It looks better to do with second suggestion with JSON file.

      But even though I installed certain font with tts file, the JSON file doesn't make any change in my power BI.

       

      Is there any other thing that I should check to do so?

      Thanks in advance.
