How to convert EOT to WOFF
- Add your .EOT file - drop it in the box above or click to browse.
- Convert it to .WOFF in a few seconds.
- Download your new .WOFF file.
What to expect
- EOT files are often subset to only the glyphs used on the original web page - the WOFF output will contain that same limited character set, not the full typeface; you need the original TTF or OTF source to recover all glyphs.
- WOFF2 (Brotli-compressed) is about 30 % smaller than WOFF and is supported by every browser since 2016 - consider it as your primary target instead of WOFF.
- Check the font license before redistributing: converting to WOFF strips EOT's rootstring URL binding but does not grant new rights to a commercial typeface.
Frequently asked questions
Will the WOFF look identical to the EOT on screen?
Yes. Both formats carry the same outlines and hinting, so rendering is identical. Any visual difference comes from the browser or OS, not the format.
Do I still need the EOT entry in my @font-face CSS?
No - remove it. No current browser supports EOT, and IE 11 was retired on June 15, 2022. A modern
@font-face stack needs only WOFF2 and optionally WOFF as a fallback for very old browsers.My EOT only has a few hundred glyphs - where is the rest of the alphabet?
EOT kits were typically subset to only the characters the original web page used. To get the full typeface you need the original
.ttf or .otf source file from the font foundry.Can I convert back from WOFF to EOT?
Technically yes using FontForge (File > Generate Fonts > EOT), but there is no reason to - EOT was only ever supported by Internet Explorer, which no longer exists.
