node-canvas can't load a font

So, I'm trying to use a custom font with canvas in this way:

canva.registerFont('./src/fonts/alternate-gothic-cond-atf.otf', { family: 'Alternate Gothic Cond ATF' });
ctx.font = '60px Alternate Gothic Cond ATF'

and get this: (process:4992): Pango-WARNING **: 15:26:26.259: couldn't load font "Alternate Gothic Cond ATF Condensed 60px", falling back to "Sans Condensed 60px", expect ugly output. I tried with different fonts and works fine, so I don't know why this won't work, I also tried to reinstall the font, but nothing changed.

Edit: Since the other font I tried was .ttf I converted the file to .tff but no progress have been made.

Currently experiencing same issue in my project, it seems you need to have the font installed on your machine for Pango to load it properly.
