Test font download size and time @font-face vs. Google fonts

Also use FontForge to delete all the unnecessary glyphs from the font to reduce the filesize.

This is the comparison between using Google Fonts and font-face

Google Fonts

googlefont

font-face

ff

You have to toggle between the two to really see the difference, but I think it's nothing that is noticeable for an average Joe.

The download size differences are: Google Fonts: 85.6KB font-face: 49.5KB

If we are happy with how the font-face solution looks then I will make a PR.

Lets just go with Google fonts then

Even though the filesize is bigger?
