The font selection for the text to image tool has no effect as all on the resulting text, exept re-generate the effect

Please perform a hard refresh on your browser Ctrl(Cmd) + Shift + R. If this doesn't work, can you provide a URL, OS version, and browser version.

Hello, I didn't expect an answer that fast, kudos for that.

the hard refresh is useless unfortunately.

I'm unable to reproduce this bug, even with your link provided. Can you try an incognito browser?

[Christophe22259004budn]

Hello, I tried in a Firefox incognito Tab, same problem (Firefox 112.0.1 (64-bit)).
However I tested with Chrome broswer and it works fine.

So, the font selection works on Chrome, but I can't download the png file. I can only copy to clipboard, and then paste into photoshop, but this way I have a black background instead of transparent background.

EUREKA !
I know where the firefox issue comes from. It's not a bug, and in fact it allows me to generate the text effect using any font installed on my computer, OR to choose from the fonts in the Font panel of the Text Effects app. This comes from the "Language and Appearance" settings in Firefox under "Fonts" > "Advanced settings", if he checkbox "Allow pages to choose their own fonts" isn't checked then the font selection in the Text Effect app is useless and the rendering will be done using the font setted in Firefox, hence allowing to render in any font installed in the OS. If the checkbox is checked, then the rendering will use the font selected in the Text Effects app.

Thank you for finding the solution! We were unable to reproduce this in our own browsers, so this is very helpful.
