Why convert TTF to WOFF2?

You have a desktop font (TTF) and need to use it on a website. WOFF2 is compressed specifically for web delivery and loads significantly faster than serving a raw TTF file.

What is a TTF file?

TrueType Font: TTF is the most common desktop font format. When you install a font on your computer, it's usually a .ttf file. The format has been standard since the late 1980s.

Used for: Desktop fonts, print documents, application text rendering

Technical details: Stores font outlines as quadratic Bezier curves. Supports hinting for crisp rendering at small sizes. Not compressed.

Compatibility: Supported by every major operating system, word processor, and design tool.

What is a WOFF2 file?
