Bug: Inconsistent font rendering in Google Docs templates for creating PDFs

Hi everyone!

I’m running into a quirky issue where custom fonts like Inter and Libre Barcode 39 Text in my Google Docs templates for creating PDFs aren’t rendering reliably. Instead of working consistently, the output randomly defaults to Arial font.

While this is just a minor visual glitch for my standard text using the Inter font, it completely breaks my scannable barcodes that use the Libre Barcode 39 Text font, because they just render as regular text!

My current workaround: If I manually re-trigger the automation a couple of times, it eventually catches the fonts and renders the PDF correctly.

Has anyone else run into this, or does anyone know a trick to make sure the fonts cache and render correctly every single time?

Hello @yugal.one,

The best course of action would be to reach out to the support team so that they can review and, if necessary, create a bug.

Let me know how that goes please.
