Embed Google Fonts

Embed Google Fonts tries to automatically replace registered Google Fonts from themes and plugins with local versions, directly loaded from your own server.

Contribute: https://github.com/moewe-io/embed-google-fonts

Notes

• The first request might be very slow, as fonts are downloaded and cached the first time they are requested.
• This doesn’t automatically replace all your Google fonts with local versions. If a plugin/theme doesn’t use WordPress wp_enqueue_style it probably won’t work.
• Loaded fonts are not optimized, means, the whole font including all subsets is loaded
• See FAQ for instructions to use locally hosted fonts directly and avoid using Heroku
