Font Tools

Convert font files between TTF, OTF, WOFF and WOFF2, create web fonts with ready-made @font-face CSS, and preview any font with your own text before you install it. Fonts are processed on your device and never uploaded.

Which font format do you need?

Use WOFF2 for websites: it is the smallest font format and every current browser supports it, so one WOFF2 file per style is enough. Use TTF to install a font on Windows, macOS or Linux, or to load it into Word, Photoshop, Canva, Cricut or a game engine. OTF is great for design work because it keeps every OpenType feature, but some apps only accept TTF. WOFF is an older web format you only need for very old browsers. The Font Viewer shows a font's name, version, license and characters before you install or convert it.

Frequently asked questions

Will converting a font change its quality?

No. Moving between TTF, WOFF and WOFF2 repackages the same data without loss. Converting OTF to TTF redraws the outlines in TrueType format, which looks the same at normal sizes.

Are my font files uploaded?

No. Fonts are converted and previewed in your browser, so licensed or unreleased fonts never leave your computer.

Can I convert fonts I downloaded from a website?

Only when the license allows it. Open fonts such as those from Google Fonts can be converted freely; commercial web fonts are usually licensed for one website only.

Choosing the right font format

  • For websites: use WOFF2. It is the smallest format and every modern browser supports it. Convert desktop fonts with TTF to WOFF2.
  • For Word, Photoshop or Canva on a computer: install TTF or OTF files. Convert web fonts back with WOFF2 to TTF.
  • Before buying or installing: preview the letters, numbers and symbols with the Font Viewer to check that the characters you need are included.

Licences matter. Converting a font does not change what its licence allows. Fonts from Google Fonts are free to use; commercial fonts may need a separate licence for desktop, web or app use.
