   Raleway is the designer's display face. It is licensed under the SIL Open
   Font License (see assets/fonts/Raleway-OFL.txt), so it is self-hosted here —
   no third-party font service, nothing to go down, nothing sent to Google.
   Subset to Latin: 18KB per weight.

   Segoe UI is the designer's text face. It is Microsoft's proprietary font and
   is NOT licensed for web embedding, so it is referenced as a system font
   rather than shipped. Windows visitors — most of Guardian's audience — get
   the exact face the design uses, at zero download. Everyone else falls back
   to their own system UI sans, which is what Segoe UI is a version of.
   To make non-Windows visitors match exactly, add Selawik: Microsoft's own
   metric-compatible, openly licensed Segoe UI substitute. Drop the woff files
   in this folder, add @font-face rules, and put it after "Segoe UI" below.
