• A font format for use in web pages. WOFF files are OpenType or TrueType fonts, with additional XML metadata added and format-specific compression applied. The two primary goals are to first distinguish font files intended for use as web fonts from fonts files intended for use in desktop applications via local installation, and second to reduce web font latency when fonts are transferred from a server to a client over a network connection. The first draft of WOFF was published in 2009. ← Wikipedia ↑ w3.org/TR/WOFF2
