About WOFF
WOFF (Web Open Font Format) is a W3C wrapper that compresses a TrueType or OpenType font for use on websites.
Web fonts loaded with CSS @font-face; all current browsers support it.
WOFF2 compresses better, so WOFF is now mainly a fallback for old browsers.
Convert WOFF to WOFF2 online free, no account required — WOFF2 is the Brotli-compressed second version of the web font format.
Change WOFF to WOFF2 without losing quality — convert WOFF to WOFF2 free in your browser.
