I appears that we have to modify the font of the Table Tool.
Modification on the Render tool can not override the setting of Table Tool.

for this, i try use formula tool to replace the text font.

@Qiu i am using 2020.4 and wonder why alteryx have the chinese option in header but it still use Arial to output? it do not make any sense.
or it solved in later version?

I am using the latest 2022.1 and it seems the situation is improved, but still not perfect.
We can not change the font still, but somehow it gets outputted.
