Technical Quality Assessment
Dynamic range — the span from darkest to brightest values — is handled carefully during this conversion. TrueType Font preserves the full range. EOT Web Font maintains the complete dynamic range. Xonvert preserves embedded metadata (EXIF, XMP, ID3 tags, etc.) whenever the EOT Web Font format supports it. Format-exclusive metadata fields that have no equivalent in EOT Web Font are gracefully omitted without affecting the converted content. Quality in this conversion depends primarily on your source file. A high-quality TrueType Font input produces an excellent EOT Web Font output. Since the target format is lossless, output quality matches your input exactly.
Font format conversion from TrueType Font to EOT Web Font re-packages glyph outlines, kerning tables, and OpenType features into the target container. Hinting information may be adapted for the target rendering engine. This conversion is essential when deploying fonts across web, desktop, and mobile platforms that require different font formats.
The TTF to EOT conversion applies format-appropriate algorithms to ensure maximum data fidelity. TrueType hinting provides precise rendering at small sizes

Yes! Drag multiple files into the converter for batch processing. All files convert simultaneously and can be downloaded as a ZIP archive.
What's the maximum number of files I can convert at once?▼
Free users can convert several files per batch. PRO users enjoy unlimited batch sizes. For very large batches, your device's memory is the only practical limit.
