# Readme for save-webfonts
This `save-webfonts` script and accompanying library are designed to facilitate caching webfonts manually for approved sites. Many sites out there use fonts for interesting glyphs, so disabling webfonts is not a choice made for convenience but security.
But for the sites you trust (or are willing to compromise for), you can run save-webfonts with those URLs, and save down the webfonts to your local user font cache.
## Features
* Read css files from har file (web interaction replay log generated by a web browser)
* Convert woff, woff2, and eot down to ttf
## Upstream
[This repo](https://gitlab.com/bgstack15/save-webfonts) is the original source.
## Alternatives
Enable webfonts in your browser. Check setting `gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled`. The author is not aware of any other scripts, processes, or extensions that "allow" web fonts for arbitrary sites.
This is original research.
## How to use
Read the output of `./save-webfonts --help`, which is also provided here.
usage: save-webfonts [-h] [-d [{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}]] [-v] [-n | -a] [-o OUTDIR] [-w | -N] url [url ...]
Download webfonts for a URL so browsers do not need to fetch them
positional arguments:
url URLs whose webfonts should be downloaded
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d [{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}], --debug [{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}]
Set debug level
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
-n, --dryrun Make no changes (default)
-a, --apply Actually make changes
-o OUTDIR, --outdir OUTDIR
Location of font directory. Default is ~/.local/share/fonts
-w, --wait Wait at end for Return key
-N, --no-wait, --nowait
Do not wait. Default.
## Dependencies
These are available as system packages in Fedora and Devuan.
Hard dependencies
* python3-beautifulsoup4 | python3-bs4
* python3-tinycss2
Recommends
* python3-fonttools
* libeot-tools | eot2ttf
## Bugs
* Frontend does not support har files. You have to load the python library and call the function.
## Improve
* Add harfile support to frontend script
