How to control the text font in the data model ?

I have 35+ objects data model in Power BI and I m trying to take them in a PNG image and put in a ppt slide but the image seems to be blurred and is not retaining the original size . 

Hence want to know can we control the text contents of the image ? Is there a setting ?  

Also what picture format is recommended by Microsoft for saving the pictures ? JPEG or PNG

Hi, @Anonymous 

The font is the default, but it can be enlarged by ctrl+mouse wheel.

Hi, @Anonymous 

I don't understand what you mean. Save visual? How do you save as a png?

From the model view, where we see the diagram ,I use the snipping tool to grab the image and save it as PNG .

The PowerBI data model diagram cannot be customized , it doesnt offer the size of the fonts to be enlarged or increased from its existing or default font size. 

You can also see if the table has over 50 columns ( large number of columns as I dont remember the exact number ) it doesnt expand and show the columns.

The diagrams tend to crop table names if they are too wide by default .

In general , PowerBi is not a full fledged data  modeling tool as it cannot generate diagrams which can be customized and printed  .

Visio struggles to connect and PowerBi does everything good in building rapid data model but fails in diagram generation .
