Re: Custom font in Power BI
- Anonymous2 years ago
Hi rufmau68 ,
I tested this font and it works fine. You can try the variant of 'Titillium Web' to see if it works fine.
Best Regards,

{
"name": "Custom",
"textClasses": {

thanks zedzen , i just tried it
works but works ONLY IF YOU HAVE that FONT INSTALLED on Local PC. Otherwise dont work.
And i need to use it in embedding / embedding for customer web solutions, where works BUT ONLY IF the user (in public web site: the citizen ?) have installed the font on owner local PC.
This is the problem: why PBI offer an embedding solution but the full user experience IT'S NOT
managed from PBI but needs that users install locally components ? its a non sense if users are on the world wide web, like in general purpose web sites, exposed on the WWW....
i dont know if I well explained the problem

I'm trying the same, but with another font i downloaded from internet. The font, "ZapfHumnst BT" is already installed and i tried using in Microsoft Word, worked perfectly. I did all the steps, the name appears in BI but looking as Times New Roman. Here's my current .json file:
{ "name": "Custom", "textClasses": { "label": { "fontFace": "'ZapfHumnst BT'" }, "callout": { "fontFace": "'ZapfHumnst BT'" }, "title": { "fontFace": "'ZapfHumnst BT'" }, "header": { "fontFace": "'ZapfHumnst BT'" } } }- rufmau681 year ago

"ZapfHumnst BT" dont works? also if you have (previosly) installed on your machine ? wow bad think! so it seems that you can customize every fonts BUT noone works if are not one of defualt fonts preinstalled in PBI. No good... my first post il 6 months old and right now no good solution match with our needs. Where is Microsoft Support ? Our Microsoft Support dont give me good answers, just generic: You can. But then We cant ;-(
Stay tuned
thanks
bye
