Font (external resources) can't load when svg embedded via img tag

[gpoitch]

For example when embedding in a github readme:

<img src="term-sheet.svg" />

This cannot load the custom font in the css

@import url("https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Inconsolata");

This is a known browser limitation that img tags won't load any external resources.

Possible options:

• Embed the font as base64
• Figure out an alternative way to embed svg in github markdown
• Don't use custom fonts and just use the monospace font-stack
