    It would be great if we could customize font by importing a JSON file in addition to being able to customize color.

    You can specify custom fonts in the Theme json. Custom fonts in Power BI - everything you wanted to know! - Data Mozart (data-mozart.com) You'll need to ensure the font is installed on your user's machines.

    Can you manipulate size, font, and color of titles so they come back the same each time? I was able to do this with my legend but not my title?

    Honestly, font settings are very awkward to use via themes. We should have access to all ttf fonts installed on our PC anywhere we select fonts in Power BI. Those fonts should then upload to PBI when we publish a report from Power BI Desktop.

    It would be useful to designate a font type that is to be used across all visuals.

    I am working on 100+ reports and they have 10 major categories of branding. JSON is my savior but it's not mature enough. Theme and JSON are very strong component of Power BI and it should be available.
