Well, when I tried Elham my GitHub action run failed on the font, and when I check these in the factory local docker/latex 2.14.0.3 image, I seem to be coming up empty:

# ls /usr/share/fonts
ls: /usr/share/fonts: No such file or directory
# ls /usr/local/share/fonts
ls: /usr/local/share/fonts: No such file or directory
# ls ~./fonts
ls: ~./fonts: No such file or directory
# fc-list
#

The interesting thing to a newbie like me - is where is pandoc getting its default Latin Modern from the docker/latex image? Since the docs say for this latex variable:

https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#variables-for-latex > Fonts:
"fontfamily font package for use with pdflatex: The default is Latin Modern."

Well, if I'm doing this correctly... when I spin up the 2.14.0.3 docker/latex image and poke around, in:
/usr/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/

I see in: 40-nonlatin.conf:


        <alias>
                <family>Arshia</family>
                <default><family>sans-serif</family></default>
        </alias>
        <alias>
                <family>Elham</family>
                <default><family>sans-serif</family></default>
        </alias>

...and a continued long list of sans serif ^ font family entries.

Does this mean they're available as a GitHub Action arg with -V fontfamily=Elham, etc? I will try that out next.
