The hard-coded "Times" font family doesn't resolve on Windows, producing: couldn't load font "Times 12", falling back to "Sans 12" Use the generic "Serif" family name instead, which Fontconfig and Pango resolve to an appropriate serif font on all platforms (e.g. "Times New Roman" on Windows, "DejaVu Serif" on Linux).
