Google Font Helper site

Hello everyone, I just stumbled across this website and wanted to share it with the group. Super useful for hosting Google fonts locally in your projects.

Note that doing it this way will not allow the fonts to interface with the Foundry tools. Instead it is probably more helpful to download the fonts from Google and use them as Self-hosted fonts in the Foundry Typeface tool.

Hey Adam, sorry I should have been more clear. I was implying that people could use the tool the way you are suggesting. Once you select your font you can download a .zip file to your pc. Inside the zip file are the .woff & .woff2 files that you can put in your resources, then use Typeface to link to it. This tool eliminates the need for the 3rd party converter that you were using in your Typeface tutorial.
