Conky Box Character Connection Problem

Hi,

I'm brand new to using Conky and I'm having a problem trying to using box drawing characters in my Conky setup... they aren't connecting up. Here is a screenshot.

It is appearing correctly in my conky.conf file. Here is my source code.

conky.config = {
    alignment = 'top_left',
    background = false,
    border_width = 1,
    cpu_avg_samples = 2,
    color0 = '858c97',
    color1 = '5294e2',
    color2 = 'FFFFFF',
    default_color = 'white',
    default_outline_color = 'white',
    default_shade_color = 'white',
    draw_borders = false,
    draw_graph_borders = true,
    draw_outline = false,
    draw_shades = false,

    gap_y = 60,

    update_interval = 1.0,
