ABOUT







EOT (Embedded OpenType) File Format

The Embedded OpenType File Format (EOT) was developed by Microsoft to enable TrueType and OpenType fonts to be linked to web pages for download to render the web page with the font the author desired. This link prepared by Paul Nelson (Microsoft) specifies the format of the EOT file so that authoring tools can create embedded or linked fonts and add them to a page, and servers serving web content can serve font content with web pages, and 3) User Agents may download, extract and temporarily install fonts of the EOT file suffix that are included in the @font-face definition of a CSS style sheet. It is a dynamic font format supported in Internet Explorer 4.0 and above. It permits an author's font to be used in an html page without explicit downloading. Developed and marketed by Microsoft to choke the competition (Bitstream/Netscape/Truedoc's PFR), the format can be obtained from a truetype or opentype file by using WEFT.
