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

I don't understand why this restriction is in place to begin with. If someone wants a smaller font size, so what?

RE: Smaller Font Options

Font 8 is way too large both on Desktop and webservice, it makes reports look jammed and ugly, squeezing out most spaces, really not efficient use of browser. Font 6 is MUST.

RE: Smaller Font Options

Smaller than 8 font size - yes please! My reports will look so much more professional if I had smaller font.

RE: Smaller Font Options

Agree with all comments. We need something smaller than 8 pt.

RE: Smaller Font Options

It's not just about screen estate. I have users who want to see numbers on smaller visual elements (e.g. donut charts) and they can't because Power BI doesn't support a small enough font. Increasing the canvas size doesn't fix the problem because users may not have the screen resolution capability required to view the report.

I have want to have small font size. Power BI is useful, but our supervisors may not know about how to using it. I need to prerpare PDF format for them.Small font will be helpful for the layout.

RE: Smaller Font Options

The dashboard does not look very professional with 8pt. I was recently asked if we had designed it for folks who read the Large Print Books.

Font size 6 would be great for x axis on charts
