Free Font Tools

Convert, view, subset and test fonts: glyph maps, metadata, variable axes and Hindi fonts. 6 free tools, no sign-up.

Convert, inspect, subset and test fonts in your browser

These free font tools open TTF, OTF, WOFF, WOFF2 and other font files in your browser, with no upload. The font converter changes between formats and really converts outlines where a format needs it, and the font subsetter keeps only the characters you need for a much smaller web font, with the CSS unicode-range written for you.

To look inside a font, the font viewer shows every glyph with its metrics, the font metadata viewer reads the licence, designer and embedding rights, and the variable font tester gives every axis a slider. The Hindi font previewer shows your Devanagari text in 30 free fonts and checks that conjuncts and matras form correctly.

Check the licence first

  • Converting is not licensing. Many commercial fonts do not allow conversion, subsetting or web use. Open-licence fonts such as those under the SIL Open Font License do. The metadata viewer shows the licence text stored in the font.

Fonts & Typography: frequently asked questions

Are my fonts uploaded?

No. The fonts are read and converted in your browser and never leave your device.

Which font format should I use on a website?

WOFF2 is supported by all current browsers and is the smallest. Subsetting it to the characters you use makes it smaller still.

Why does my Hindi text look broken in some fonts?

Older fonts such as Kruti Dev use a legacy encoding, not Unicode, and some Unicode fonts lack certain conjuncts or the ₹ sign. The Hindi font previewer tests each font and lists what is missing.
