cannot display character character in static image #157

williamay53 commented 1 year ago

Hi,

I find that I cannot write chinese character in static image, e.g. I have the following code:

`import plotly.express as px

df = px.data.gapminder().query("country=='Canada'") fig = px.line(df, x="year", y="lifeExp", title="測試") fig.write_image('test_chinese_character.png')`

the result is as follows:

test_chinese_character

plotly.io.write_image(fig, temp_file+"/t.png", format="png")

Thanks for your interest in Kaleido. We are currently working on an overhaul that might address your issue - we hope to have news in a few weeks and will post an update then. Thanks - @gvwilson

having this same issue with exporting a table containing japanese characters, looking forward to the solution (may try williamay53's installing language packages solution later for now 🙌 edit: tried installing japanese language packs, didn't fix it, still just showing up as boxes 😐)
