Dear Alex

I started pd with:

    pd -font-face "IBM Plex Mono"

That seemed to work. See screenshot attached showing a comment in a pd window and an
example of the font (in a font manager). Defaults to bold, but that is expected, right?

Is that what is not working for you?

I am on Ubuntu 20.04 and using pd 0.50.2 (built from source).

Best
