googlefonts__fstype

Checking OS/2 fsType does not impose restrictions.

googlefonts/fstype

• Applies to: TTF
• Fontspector can hotfix?: no
• Fontspector can fix sources?: no

Rationale

The fsType in the OS/2 table is a legacy DRM-related field. Fonts in the Google Fonts collection must have it set to zero (also known as "Installable Embedding"). This setting indicates that the fonts can be embedded in documents and permanently installed by applications on remote systems.
