The file that you get from the webfonts helper doesn't conform to the
Google zip file structure. See Robert's comment on the abandonded patch.

The file can still be uploaded to the normal form. What would be good to
go forward is to consolidate everything into one form because the
webfonts helper doesn't come with license information. Since Google
itself doesn't provide individual font weights any more and we need
formats that would need to be converted manually otherwise, we could put
everything onto the 'Install font' form with help on how to get Google
fonts via the webfonts helper.

Title:
  Update Google Fonts installation information

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently, we link to fonts.google.com but should be linking to https
  ://google-webfonts-helper.herokuapp.com instead as that is a better
  site for Google fonts. It is packaging the Google fonts up directly in
  all the formats that we need, preventing that we need to go through
  that step. Individual font specimen are not available via
  fonts.google.com any more.

  We still need all the fonts that you get via 'Best support' rather
  than using 'Modern browsers' to cover ourselves well for supported
  browsers also on mobile.
