Support for Japanese Font Rendering in Code Interpreter

I’m using OpenAI’s Code Interpreter for work and have encountered issues displaying Japanese text in visualizations like bar graphs. The interpreter understands Japanese but fails to render it properly (eg. matplotlib) due to missing fonts.

Since the model cannot download fonts from the internet, I currently have to manually upload a Japanese font (in a zip file) and install it every session, which is impractical.

Would it be possible to include Japanese font support natively in the Code Interpreter environment? This would greatly improve usability for users working with Japanese data.

Thank you for your consideration!
