Are files containing only latin subset available anywhere?

Came here looking for this too. It seems like it existed at some point as shown in the following comment: https://github.com/bBoxType/FiraSans/issues/8#issuecomment-282727181

+1 for this. Came looking for the same thing too.

What I ended up using is font-ranger with the custom Unicode ranges (https://github.com/doasync/font-ranger).

I’ve discovered the FiraGO character ranges from the “Technical Report FiraGO 1.001” PDF document (https://bboxtype.com/downloads/FiraGO/Technical_Report_FiraGO.pdf).

Next, I rewrote the font-ranger’s default-subsets.js file (https://github.com/doasync/font-ranger/blob/master/lib/default-subsets.js) with this code: https://gist.github.com/WebPraktikos/06c3273d7ef89c33305ff8d1804bc24c.

Here are the related notes from the time I did the subsetting: https://gist.github.com/WebPraktikos/133ff51865dfdeb0ea75e21b1bcbfbdf.

Here are the generated subsets and CSS @font-face file:

Hope it helps.
