    PivotTable Styles - Change font size

    Hi!

    Is there any way to change the font size in a custom/duplicated PivotTable Style? I can modify the Border or Fill but not the font size...!?!

    Thanks,
    FixandFoxi

    Hi

    Click on format style and change the normal style to what you want, that should then be the default.

    When I click "format", I can not change the font and size (I can see these sections but they are not highlighted). I only can modify the Border and Fill.

    Re: PivotTable Styles - Change font size

    I had the same problem, i needed to show a pivot table in excel in a presentation , but the fonts were too small.

    I used this quick fix, I make the chart smaller, so the legends are bigger compared to chart area in the graph, then view it in a larger scale. so the fonts look bigger.

    If you embedded the pivot table to powerpoint, you can scale the graph when the excel sheet object is dormant and with the previous quick fix, you can view the pivottable as if fonts of the legends are larger.

    I hope it helps

    Re: PivotTable Styles - Change font size

    I just figured out the solution to this. I'm running Office 365 ProPlus Outlook v15.0.4727.1003

    If you right click in a blank space on the pivot table there is now a font option in the context menu. You can set the overall font size for the pivot table from here. I have found that you can change the title font size individually after you set this font.

    See attached.

    Re: PivotTable Styles - Change font size

    It seem to work if you select all the cells in the pivot table and then change the text size. The when you refresh it then stays the same
