Font issue When comparing Comparing Windows to Mac

Hi All,

 

I have an issue regarding change in fonts when compare to windows and Mac.

Eg: I have used segoe UI. However in mac it is showing Times New Roman. How can we make sure the same segoe UI font should reflect in Mac Post Publishing.

    Hi Balaraju ,

     

    Power BI uses the Segoe UI font for text as its default, and the Din font for numbers, and other fonts when creating reports, dashboards, and other artifacts, which may not be available on non-Windows computers such as Macs. As a result the font, alignment of artifacts, and visuals for the same report will look different when viewed on a Windows computer versus a Mac.

    For reference:
