SVG file format is recommended.
imagesize: Width of the image to display (default is 300px).
classifications: The Vox-ATypI classification for the typeface, such as "Humanist", "Didone", "Geometric", or "Lineal humanist".
creator: Name of this font's designer(s), if known. Otherwise leave blank and fill in foundry name.

Note: Monotype doesn't link to the foundry.
creationdate: The year the font was created.

license: The license the font is published under, e.g. "OFL", "CC0", or "Proprietary".
