: Converting OFL licensed Fonts to WOFF I would like to convert a font which uses the Open Font License to WOFF for use on a web site. My understanding is that this conversion probably contravenes

@Samaraweera207

My understanding of section:


2.2 Can I make and use WOFF (Web Open Font Format) versions of OFL fonts?


The original font data remains unchanged except for WOFF compression, and
WOFF-specific metadata is either omitted altogether or present and includes, unaltered, the contents of all equivalent metadata in the
original font.



So if you cannot find a conversion software that handles that then just change the name.

Because in that same section it reads


"If the original font data or metadata is changed, or the
WOFF-specific metadata is incomplete, the font must be considered a
Modified Version, the OFL restrictions would apply and the name of the
font must be changed"


I recommend fontforge fontforge.github.io/en-US/ I read that it does work with WOFF but just change the name to something else and it will be seen as a modified font and you do not have to worry about the license.
