When to Convert

Common scenarios where this conversion is useful

Installing a WOFF2 font on your operating system

You received a WOFF2 file but need to use the font in Word, PowerPoint, or other desktop applications. Convert to TTF to install it system-wide on Windows, macOS, or Linux.

Opening a web font in a font editor

Font design tools require TTF or OTF files. Convert WOFF2 to TTF to inspect, modify, or subset the font in FontForge, Glyphs, or similar editors.

Using web fonts in native mobile apps

iOS and Android native apps typically bundle TTF fonts. If you have WOFF2 versions from a web project, convert them to TTF for your mobile builds.

Creating font specimens or previews

Design tools and font preview generators work with TTF. Convert WOFF2 to TTF to generate specimen sheets, waterfall displays, or font comparison materials.

Recovering desktop fonts from web font kits

If you have a web font kit with only WOFF2 files and need the desktop version, convert to TTF to recover a system-installable font.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. WOFF2 uses lossless Brotli compression. Decompressing it recovers all original glyph outlines, metrics, kerning, and OpenType features with zero quality loss.

The TTF will be significantly larger because WOFF2 Brotli compression is very efficient. Expect the TTF to be roughly 40-60% larger than the WOFF2 file, restoring the original uncompressed size.

Yes. The output is a standard TTF file. On Windows, right-click and Install. On macOS, double-click to open Font Book. On Linux, copy to ~/.local/share/fonts/.

Variable font data (fvar, gvar, avar, STAT tables) is preserved during decompression. The resulting TTF will be a fully functional variable font with all axes and instances.

WOFF2 can contain either TrueType or CFF outlines. The converter handles both. If the source contains CFF data, the extracted font will contain CFF outlines.

Format conversion is a technical operation. Whether it's permitted depends on the font's license terms. Some web font licenses restrict conversion or desktop use. Always check your license.

Completely. The decompression and extraction happen entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No data is sent to any server. Your fonts remain on your device throughout.

Yes. Many game engines (Unity, Unreal, Godot) accept TTF fonts for in-game text rendering. Converting WOFF2 to TTF makes the font compatible with these engines.

Color font tables (COLR, CPAL, sbix, CBDT) are included in the TTF output if present in the WOFF2. Desktop support for color fonts depends on the specific color table format and your OS version.

That will not work. WOFF2 is a compressed container format with its own structure. Simply renaming the extension does not decompress or unwrap the data. You need a proper conversion.
