cannot display character character in static image

[williamay53]

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:

I am using ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, python3, plotly v5.10.0 and kaleido v0.2.1

I am having the same error with plotty 5.18.0 and this line:

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