Steps to reproduce this

It seems that not all the fonts from fonts.google.com are loading.

I'm having a look at this demo :

https://editor.p5js.org/ksen0/sketches/cevvPvWar

I'm replacing the google font url from :

https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Epilogue:wght@100..900&display=swap

to :

https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Inter:ital,opsz,wght@0,14..32,100..900;1,14..32,100..900&display=swap

and I'm having a log saying :

Error: No font data available for "Inter"
WEBGL: only Opentype (.otf) and Truetype (.ttf) fonts with glyph data are supported

🌸 p5.js says: [sketch.js, line 53] An error with message "No font data available for "Inter"
Try downloading a local copy of the font file" occurred inside the p5js library when textToPaths was called. If not stated otherwise, it might be an issue with the arguments passed to textToPaths. (https://p5js.org/reference/p5/textToPaths)
┌[blob:https://preview.p5js.org/7451d384-5e80-48b0-aed4-d9db3dbdcadd:53:23]
Error at line 53 in shapeText()
└[blob:https://preview.p5js.org/7451d384-5e80-48b0-aed4-d9db3dbdcadd:39:12]
Called from line 39 in draw()

Furthermore, the textWeight() doesn't seem to do anything, if set to 100, it should "load" the light font, 900 should load the bold font. and thus the sampling with textToCountours() would result in a "new" sampling of the contours.
