A tool to optimize fonts for web distribution.

Project description

A tool to split/segment a TTF file into multiple WOFF2 files based on Unicode character ranges, and generate a CSS file that describes that font face as an aggregate of those WOFF2 files.

Installation

pip install ttf2web

Usage

ttf2web /path/to/font-file.ttf

This will split font-file.ttf based on a set of pre-defined Unicode ranges, and create (in the working directory) font-file.css and a directory named assets containing the WOFF2 files.

Here’s a demo of a more complete example:

$ ls
Raleway-Regular.ttf  unicode-ranges

$ cat unicode-ranges
greek         U+0370-03FF
greek-ext     U+1F00-1FFF
latin         U+0000-00FF,U+0131,U+0152-0153,U+02BB-02BC,U+02C6,U+02DA,U+02DC
latin-ext     U+0100-024F,U+0259,U+1E00-1EFF,U+20A0-20CF,U+2C60-2C7F,U+A720-A7FF
