Hello,


PowerBI is really a powerful platform for Business Intelligence and visualizations. However, there are a lot of font styles not currently available in this platform. Most of our clients have their own branding which includes font styles that are not available in PowerBI such as Open Sans, Raleway, and Work Sans. With this, it would be very helpful if these font styles be added to PowerBI both in desktop app and PowerBI Service.


Thank you and more power!

I would like to add a custom font to the reports. Extra plus if that font is also embedded with the report although this is not necessary. This would help make the reports feel more "ownable" and be more credible in a very visually driven or brand led company.

Hello,


It would be really useful if we could embed fonts into the PowerBi report itself, perhaps as a base64 TTF or OTF file string.

Custom fonts that use glyphs are really great because you can choose a color against the unicode item you want to import.


I suspect using a font over an image also increases performance.


There are some great fonts out there but the end users would need to install the font on every machine in order to view the report correctly.

It was important to be able to add fonts to Power BI. It is a critical issue not to be able to use the corporate font in the reports I hope this limitation will soon be overcome. Thanks.

Is possible to use other fonts that I have installed in my PC on my dashboards?

It would be great if there was an easier way to expand a user's font library through custom fonts, without having to add the fonts to specific themes via a theme's JSON file.

We have a organization wide required font that is on our Power BI On-Prem. We would like for this to be an option for the Power BI Cloud.

I can set a font like Arial in a paginated report as I build it. It previews fine, but then when I publish it to the service, it won't stick. I've inspected the XML and can see nothing but Arial in the XML, and yet when I publish it to the service I get something else. It would be great to be able to have the font I select also be the published font.
