Preview not working in Power BI report builder

[cdBer]

Hi community, when I insert a text field into a newly created report in power bi report builder, it doesn't show up in the preview, but it does when exporting to pdf. Why is it not previewed?
I have also created completely new reports, checked text field properties...
Thanks!

Edition Windows 11 Business Version: 23H2 German

Power bi report builder Version: 15.7.1813.16

Hi,@cdBer .I am glad to help you.

It does look very strange.

This is my test.
I tried to create several new Text Boxes, and at the same time change the font size of the fields in the matrix/form (less than 11 pt).
Unfortunately, I did not reproduce your problem (preview/export of paginated reports display text data with different fonts correctly):

 "the text field inserted into the newly created report"

Do you mean the text box in the power bi report builder?

I noticed that you also provided your version information.
this is my report builder version : v15.7.1813.16(same with you)

I hope my test was helpful

I hope my suggestions give you good ideas, if you have any more questions, please clarify in a follow-up reply.

I found the bug - Apparently new feature or limitation: Only font size from 11 is previewed.

Hi,

I had the same issue and was able to solve it based on this thread. When I used Segoe UI as font in the tables the text was not displayed in preview mode. When I changed the font to Arial it showed up again.
