The minimum text size in a Table is 8. I could use smaller options for tables that have a lot of data horizontally. Not many columns will fit on a page when you have a few text columns.

RE: Smaller Font Options

This is a valuable requirement - so much page space is lost to larger text axis lists, etc, cards could then be smaller and so on

RE: Smaller Font Options

I could really use font size 6 for my x-axis labels - as it stands, fort size 8 wipes out far too much canvas space and make things look disproportionate. Surely this is a really simple change, and developers could just choose font size 8 for themselves if that's what they want?

RE: Smaller Font Options

Smaller font sizes required to ensure data labels are visible when building charts. Please enable this in Power BI.

I am working Power App Canvas App where I have embedded PBI report and have to show it in small card.Since my Canvas app is using small fonts (in points), we have to make sure PBI should also align and support it.Therefore PBI small fonts (less than 8px) should be available.

Many cases, smaller than size 8 are required. Please implement this!

This really shouldn't be a big lift for Microsoft to get done. Why are we waiting 7 years for this?

I really hope that such an option will appear!

RE: Smaller Font Options

It is necessary to have smaller font sizes for certain visualizations

RE: Smaller Font Options

This would really help; I'm shocked this is still an open issue...

RE: Smaller Font Options

Agree with other comments here. Why have the restriction at all? Why can't page designers use whatever font size they want? It feels like somebody has decided that all reports must meet some internal Microsoft standard design. If it's possible to render it, then let us do that even if our reports look bad to you.
