Description
I've noticed poor rendering of the trademark ™ and registered ® symbols when loading Source Sans in Windows 10 from Google Fonts hosting via:
```@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Source+Sans+Pro:400,400i,600,700&display=swap&subset=cyrillic');```
The issue also occurs on the [Google Fonts preview page](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Source+Sans+Pro). System Cleartype is on. I've tried loading latin extended, with no luck, and read similar issues. This also happens on other Windows 10 machines.
The issue does not occur when I self host, using files generated via the [google-webfonts-helper](https://google-webfonts-helper.herokuapp.com/fonts/source-sans-pro?subsets=cyrillic,latin) tool, which I believe uses the same files.
On the ™ symbol you can see the T and M are misaligned. The issue is worse at smaller type sizes.
Chrome (latest) Windows 10
Edge Windows 10
Firefox (latest) Windows 10
I hope this is hepful!
