Yes! The HTML Text Styler has been certified by Microsoft which means it is safe to use and can't access any external sources. Having a certified visual is important for many companies so we are proud that we managed to get the certification badge.

Certified visuals can use some additional functionality such as export to PDF and PowerPoint but they are also displayed in Email subscriptions. Read this blog post to learn more about the advantage of using certified visuals.

In this article from the Microsoft documentation page, it is explained, how a visual can be imported from AppSource.

The HTML Text Styler is an extremely versatile visual. You can not only create dynamic text which is dynamically formatted but you can also design KPI cards, embed videos or animated GIF files or any other HTML element.

Make sure to look at this page where you can see a sample report in action.

Using the HTML Text Styler visual will improve the readability of your reports tremendously which will then lead to better business decisions.

Also, the visual is Microsoft certified so it is safe to use. You can even export it to PDF and PowerPoint from the Power BI Service. Learn more about the certification here

There are countless different formats in HTML. Therefore we cannot provide a complete list. However, we can assure you that the most important and most common formats are possible.

In the Knowledge Base we show you how to work with different formatting options.

Take a look at this demo report to see a few examples: Demo report

There are several ways to convert text to HTML. One option is to use an online tool for this. A search for "word to html" returns a list of online converters.

Another option is the use of Microsoft PowerApps. Contact us and we will show you, how the PowerApp we developed works.

In general, there are 2 ways you can format text.

1. If you are using the PRO version of the visual, you can change it in the format settings of the visual. In the screenshot below you can see the format settings which you can change. Of course, on top of this, you can change any kind of format with HTML code.
   
2. You can use HTML to add formatting and this is really what makes this visual so powerful! Take a look at the Knowledge Base to learn how you can do this.

Note that HTML code will gain precedence over the settings you apply to the visual.

Of course! For maximum flexibility, DAX measures can also be used.

To create fully dynamic text which is also dynamically formatted, you can combine DAX with HTML. This might sound difficult but actually it isn't, take a look at the Knowledge Base to learn how to do it.

And if you still have questions after looking at the Knowledge Base, just get in touch with us, we're happy to help you out.

Absolutely, yes! The HTML Viewer was a popular visual but it was also lacking one important feature. It couldn't handle measures. This is one of the big advantages of the HTML Text Styler over the HTML Viewer so yes, this visual can definitely replace the other one and can do even more.

One of the big differences is that the HTML Text Styler visual is Microsoft certified which means Microsoft has confirmed that the visual is safe to use. This allows you to also export it to PDF and PowerPoint directly from the Power BI service. Also, the visual is displayed in Email subscriptions. Learn more about the certification here
