Description
Hi,
I've been using these fonts as part of a base docker image creating latex PDF's. It's been working fine with the last update about 9 months ago, but I recently updated the base docker image, which pulled the very latest Google fonts. I'm now having an issue building the latex file. The relevant error is `xdvipdfmx:fatal: Invalid TTC index (not TTC font): /usr/local/share/fonts/Quicksand[wght].ttf`. That error in some context:
```

```
Removing this file from my system enables me to build the PDF without issue.
I don't understand the details of fonts well enough to understand who or what is at fault. I thought I'd post this here in case someone can point me in the right direction -- is this an issue with this ttf file, or something else?
Thanks!
