PlotlyKaleido cannot save PlotlyLight drawings created from templates

I first created a template for my drawing and then applied the template using PlotlyLight.settings.layout.template = a_template. But the saved image is still the unapplied template version. Is there any solution for this please?

using PlotlyLight, PlotlyKaleido
PlotlyKaleido.start()

a_template = Config()
a_template.layout.title = Config(
    font    = Config(family="Arial", size=20),
    x       = 0.5,
    xanchor = "center",
)

a_template.layout.plot_bgcolor = "white"
a_template.layout.paper_bgcolor = "white"

a_template.layout.xaxis = Config(
    showline  = true,            
    linecolor = "black",         
    linewidth = 1,            
    mirror    = true,             
    ticks     = "inside",         
    tickfont  = Config(family="Arial", size=14, color="black"),
    title     = Config(font=Config(family="Arial", size=16)),
    gridcolor = "rgba(0,0,0,0.1)",
    zeroline  = false,    
)

a_template.layout.legend = Config(
    font=Config(family="Arial", size=12),
    bgcolor="rgba(0,0,0,0)",
    borderwidth=0,  
)

PlotlyLight.settings.layout.template = a_template

p = plot.scatter(x=1:20, y=cumsum(randn(20)), mode="lines+markers", line=Config(width=2))

PlotlyKaleido.savefig(p, "myplot.svg");

(Of course, the purpose of creating a template is to customize a uniform style for all my drawings. If there are other ways to accomplish this, that’s fine too.)

Hopefully this template will help all who see this post.

function get_template(; theme::Symbol=:light, width::Int=800, height::Int=600)
    template = Config()
    # global font
    template.font = theme == :light ? (family="Arial", size=16, color="black") :
                    theme == :dark ? (family="Arial", size=16, color="#dbdbdb") :
                    error("theme should be :light or :dark")

    template.plot_bgcolor = theme == :light ? "white" : "rgba(0,0,0,0)"

        # yanchor     = "top",   # Anchor y-axis alignment datum ("top", "middle", "bottom")
    )
    return template
