Strange Text Distortions after Publishing

Hi Guys,

 

i have strange anomalies of my text inside the tables.

This is how it looks on the Desktop

This is how it looks after publishing. On the PBI Page as well as the embedded result.

Powerbi squeezes and stretches Letters sometimes to a point that it looks like a full

character is missing. What could be the reason?

 

Cheers,

Tom

Hi @Torell ,

By my tests, I cannot reproduce your issue.

Firstly, please check if you have installed the latest version of Power BI Desktop.

If you still have the issue with the latest version of Power BI Desktop, please share a dummy pbix file which can reproduce the scenario, so that we can help further investigate on it? You can upload it to OneDrive and post the link here. Do mask sensitive data before uploading.

Best  Regards,

Cherry

Hi Cherry,

 

I'm using Version: 2.70.5494.761 64-bit

At the moment I'm embedding the report via iframe into my page.

There are several strange phenomenons coming up when doing so but

they appear already on the Powerbi-Homepage.

 

The text on one hand, the appearing/disappearing lines of the forms.

Here 2 examples:

Im attaching the file of the first example you can find here:

Hi @Torell ,

By my test with your sample file in my site, it seems that everything works as expected. The text in power bi desktop works as the same with that in power bi service.

Do you have the issue in the same device? 

In addition, you could clear the cache or cookie of the browser and try again.
