What this text costs

Bytes on the wire for the sample above: everything the selection publishes, only the files your text pulls, and, where the provider can subset to a glyph list, that too.

Choose what to load

General Sans publishes more than you probably need. Each group keeps at least one selection, so the last one in a group can't be turned off.
