There's no global default for font size right now. Each visual has its own options for font size.


Just in case you're not sure how to change the font size on a visual at all (I suspect you do but want to be thorough), select the visual and then:

  1. Choose the Format tab of the visual
  2. Choose which aspect you want to update (title, legend, and axis are common options for example)
  3. Choose the font size

If a visual doesn't have an option for changing a particular font size, you're out of luck. For a custom visual, I'd recommend contacting the author of the visual.


If you'd like a global default font size in the future, there are a few ideas you can vote on that will let Microsoft know. Microsoft do pay attention and prioritize work based on who's voting for what, so I do recommend doing this:
