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.

RE: Customize all fonts with JSON

The problem is that we can customize the font basicaly in the json theme file. But https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/fundamentals/power-bi-browsers states clearly that if the font is not installed on the user machine it will not work. in some documents the fonts are embedded, like a pdf document. but the power bi service is not a document its more of a website. maybe the solution would be using webfonts like in CSS https://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_fonts.asp but that is not implemented in the power bi service as of now.

RE: Customize all fonts with JSON

We provide 10 Power BI dashboards with our product (application). Application has standardize Proxima Nova font, we are able to use this font for the RDL reports but we dont see a way to import this font in PBIX reports. Theme JSON will be a good place to import such fonts. This will help our reports to be consistent with our app wrt font.

Please add the capability to install fonts. This will help comply with company guidelines. Thank you

RE: Customize all fonts with JSON

Since custom installed fonts may have a different number spacing, it might get hard to read the data out of tables and other visuals where values are displayed among each other. So please ensure, that the OpenType feature "number spacing" --> "tabular" is supported, when implementing this feature. By using this OpenType feature, digits are enforced to be displayed exactly among each other improving the readability.
