When creating visuals, report creators often worry about font availability for report consumers. A potential idea is to leverage cloud-hosted fonts from Microsoft 365 and the latest versions of Office applications, supporting all available Office fonts, including a wide range of font sizes, offering advanced text formatting options, and ensuring that visuals appear correctly without users having to embed fonts.

RE: Epic idea: All Office fonts support
100% needed. The current font library is severely lacking and inhibits users from developing themes aligned to corporate branding standards.
RE: Epic idea: All Office fonts support
Yes please!Even when adding the font via JSON theme some core visuals do not allow that font for some reason, or it's only applied to say Headers but not Values and if the font gets changed in the visual font selection dropdown the font doesn't appear in the dropdown list - so it won't let you reselect that font - you have to re-apply the theme.

Same here - we have business requirements to ensure we match the corporate style guide so I created a json theme just for the font we need.

This might seem like a trivial idea, yet one of the requirements we have from customers is to ensure we match the corporate style guide. Fonts are a very important and often overlooked part of visual marketing identity.

Awesome idea!
