andrsschultz cuts the cord so Mike reads PDFs offline

Mike renders PDFs in the browser, and to do that it normally reaches out to a public file-hosting network to grab the fonts it needs every time a document opens. That's a quiet dependency most people never notice - until they're running in an environment that blocks outside connections.

andrsschultz bundled those fonts straight into the app, so PDFs render with no outside calls at all. It's a small change with a specific payoff: Mike now works in air-gapped or locked-down networks where reaching the open internet isn't allowed. The trade-off is a heavier codebase, since the font files live permanently in the project's history. If you're hosting on the open internet, you probably don't need this.
