Would anyone object if I added a WOFF fallback for SVGFreeSans (and all its variations) to the test suite? This can let browsers that support WOFF but not SVG Fonts, like Firefox, get rendering that is more consistent with the test slide. It also helps to avoid any problems in the fallback system fonts. For example, in text-tspan-02-b, we run into a bug in Helvetica on Mac, which causes ligatures not to be disabled properly, resulting in the “fi” in “specified” not rendering.[1] Specifying a WOFF version of SVGFreeSans would help us pass this test, which isn’t intending to test anything about ligatures anyway. Actually, I don’t mind whether we do this or not, but feedback on whether this would be a good/bad idea is appreciated.
