Tableau Changes Formatting When Opening Files

Albert Huynh May 23, 2016 7:59 AM

Hi All,

Tableau is having a weird problem where I open files (old files from older versions of Tableau and tableau files created by other people) and it changes all the font and formatting. From what I can tell, it changes it to the default formatting. Is there a way to get this to stop? Reformatting all these files is really time consuming.

Thanks for any help!

Can you attach an example where the formatting is 'OK' and one where the formatting is 'changed'?

It sounds to me like the original author has used a font which is not available on your system.

Figured it out. Turns out my font setting for my computer was set as 125% instead of 100. Putting it at 100% fixed everything.
