You can use Subsetter to create new, lighter webfont files tailored to the needs of your website. Subsetter allows you to strip out extraneous glyphs and data that you may not need, like unused language characters, punctuation marks, and kerning information. Subsetter also provides a platform in which to choose a desired figure style.


   Why Web Fonts?
   Protect your brand. Web and Print

Use the same typefaces that define your identity in the print world.

Streamline web development. Dynamically Update Content

Webfont text is dynamic —
far easier to update and customize than static images.

Make search-engine optimized websites. Search, edit, and copy text

HTML text delivered via webfonts is searchable, editable, resizable, and copyable.

  
 
   Why Web FontFonts?
   They look great. Hinting

Not all webfonts are created equal. Web FontFonts are optimized by hand for the screen.

They just work. Browser Support

Using an optional Typekit account, Web FontFonts display in every major browser — Mac or Windows — even iPads and iPhones.

They speak more languages. Language Support

Most webfonts have only basic Latin character sets. Many Web FontFonts support character sets like Central European, Cyrillic, and Greek.

  
 
   Web FontFonts are as easy to license as a conventional desktop font. One-time fee.  No subscriptions.
