    Hi Anonymous

    There was a bug fix a little while ago that appears to have unintentionally led to this regression. We already know the fix, we can start right away on getting it deployed, though it may take a little while.

    In the meantime if this is causing issues, there is a workaround. You can add the following lines to the beginning of your R script:

    if (exists("powerbi_rFontName")){
      library("showtext")
      showtext.opts(dpi = powerbi_rPngDeviceDpi)
      showtext.auto()
    }

    I created a PBIX with 2 R visuals, 1 without the fix and one with. I’ve pasted below 2 screenshots I took: one of the visuals in PBI Desktop, and another of the same pbix once published to service. Once the fix is deployed, these lines can be removed, but they should not cause any issues if you leave them.
     
    Best Regards
