googlefonts__description__valid_html

Is this a proper HTML snippet?

googlefonts/description/valid_html

• Applies to: DESC
• Fontspector can hotfix?: no
• Fontspector can fix sources?: no

Rationale

Sometimes people write malformed HTML markup. This check should ensure the file is good.

Additionally, when packaging families for being pushed to the google/fonts git repo, if there is no DESCRIPTION.en_us.html file, some older versions of the add_font.py tool insert a placeholder description file which contains invalid html. This file needs to either be replaced with an existing description file or edited by hand.
