Configutation Options**

Disable Text Web Part Enhancements
To prevent users from accessing the new enhancements in the Text web part, you can disable the web part entirely for specific sites or users.
   - technical instructions: 1. Go to the SharePoint admin center. 2. Select 'Sites' and then 'Active sites'. 3. Choose the site where you want to disable the Text web part. 4. Under 'Settings', find 'Site features' and disable the 'Text web part'.

Restrict Font Size Customization
To restrict users from entering custom font sizes in the Text web part, you can implement custom scripts or use site settings to limit font size options.
   - technical instructions: 1. Use SharePoint Framework (SPFx) to create a custom web part that overrides the default Text web part. 2. In your custom web part, define the allowed font sizes and disable the input for custom sizes. 3. Deploy the SPFx solution to your SharePoint Online environment.
