What is an EOT file?
EOT – Embedded OpenType font. EOT (Embedded OpenType) is the web font format of Internet Explorer 6 to 11. No other browser reads it; new sites use WOFF2 instead. It is only needed for very old Internet Explorer.
EOT Converter →What is a WOFF2 file?
WOFF2 – Web Open Font Format 2. WOFF2 is the newest web font format: it compresses a font about 30% more than WOFF, and every current browser loads it with @font-face. It is a web format; operating systems do not install it.

Good to know
- The font is converted by FontForge: the letter shapes, spacing and kerning are kept. Hinting (the instructions that sharpen small text) is made again or left out, which modern screens do not show.
- WOFF2 is for web pages: load it with @font-face in your style sheet. Operating systems do not install it.
- An EOT file made by Microsoft's tool with compression (MTX) cannot be read; plain EOT files, which most are, can.
- Check the font's licence before converting and using it: ConvertKitty does not look at what the licence allows.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting EOT to WOFF2 free?
Yes. Everyone gets 25 free credits a day, with no account needed. Conversions on our server use one credit per started minute of work, so most cost a single credit. Credits reset at midnight UTC.
Are my EOT files uploaded anywhere?
This conversion runs on our server, because converting fonts needs FontForge, which does not run in a browser. Your file is sent over an encrypted connection, and both it and the result are deleted 72 hours after the conversion. The server has no internet access while it works on your file.
How large can the EOT file be?
Up to 1 GB per file. This conversion runs on our server, which accepts files up to that size.
Will the WOFF2 look the same as the EOT?
Yes: the letter shapes, spacing and kerning are kept. Hinting, the instructions that sharpen small text on old screens, is made again or left out, and you will not see the difference on modern screens.
Can I convert several EOT files at once?
Yes. Add as many files as you like; they are converted one after another, and each one gets its own Download button.
How long does converting EOT to WOFF2 take?
In our tests even a font with 60,000 glyphs took between 1 and 9 seconds to convert; ordinary fonts finish in a moment.
