Graph downloads do not support web fonts about app HOT 5 CLOSED

I think this is just when the font I use isn't installed on the local machine.

Confirmed; seeing if Highcharts has any way to support this.

It looks like this is more or less not possible at the moment. The way the graph exports work in Highcharts is the SVG is plopped on a canvas via blob. The canvas doesn't seem to support any form of custom font declaration from the SVG (defs, CSS styles, etc). It works if the font is already installed on your system. If not it doesn't know where to go for the font so it just reverts to the fallback font. It's a bit weird since canvas does support custom fonts (http://jsfiddle.net/zMKge/2171/).

I'll look a bit more into the issue but I may end up using the Highcharts export server to support this since I want to generate these graphs server-side anyways.
