[bar charts—all] Helvetica typeface showing up in X and Y-axis

[mjabbink]

IBM Plex is being replaced with Helvetica in both X and Y-axis and labels as well.

some additional screen grabs

[mjabbink]

all correct in Carbon Charts

[scottdickerson]

it looks like Plex on my machine, do I maybe have Plex locally installed?

[scottdickerson]

yeah that's the issue, our Carbon addons iot repo isn't serving the Plex font as part of the storybook. @tay1orjones @davidicus

[enricoberti]

'IBM Plex Sans Condensed' is the one missing in our case and used by Carbon Charts

[mjabbink]

yes, that is the style used for those parts of the anatomy. Check with Vince Picone on the type packages from Carbon

[scottdickerson]

I have a fix ready where we locally packaging this font in addons-iot. Would be good if the @carbon/types package automatically provided this for us.

[tay1orjones]

I've opened #1007 to follow on from this to remove our fix once it's fixed upstream in either @carbon/type or @carbon/charts
