Issue/Bug Description:
if clicked on a file with a .woff or .woff2 file extension in gnome files an error message shows up with no software found to open this file format.
If i right click on the file and select Open With Other Application the fonts viewer doesn't show up, i need to click on view all applications and from there i can click on the fonts program.
I find this a bit wired because the fonts program is the default program for .ttf files so why not for .woff and why is the program not under the "Recommended Applications"
Steps to reproduce (if you know):
0. Have a fresh install version of Pop OS
Download a font woff font file.
Try to open it by clicking on it
Expected behavior:
When i click on a .woff(2) file opens in the fonts program just like with .ttf files.
Other Notes:
None

For .woff files, it looks like there needs to be a change to the .desktop file adding font/woff to the MimeType list, and the same change needs to be made to the .thumbnailer file in order for thumbnails to generate. I've opened a merge request upstream for this: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-font-viewer/-/merge_requests/15
GNOME Fonts does not appear to support .woff2 fonts at all. I see this message when I try to open a .woff2 file:
If you have a .woff2 file that you are able to open in GNOME Fonts, could you provide the output of mimetype [filename]?
It seems like i was somewhat wrong here.
So i got the fonts from base64 data without any information about the actual font format.
I just named them .woff but the files where un recognized by gnome so i renamed them to .woff2 and still no luck.
When i manually selected gnome fonts both the file formats opened fine so i kinda expected that the font format for .woff and .woff2 overlap.
But it seems like gnome fonts checks the minetype and i now can confirm that these files where all font/woff not woff2

font viewer does open .woff(2) file formats by default.
