Instructions

WOFF CLI converter (with ZOPFLI compression)

Compile and install sfnt2woff1 by pasting all of the following code into a terminal:

git clone https://github.com/bramstein/sfnt2woff-zopfli.git woff &&
cd woff &&
make &&
chmod 755 woff2sfnt-zopfli sfnt2woff-zopfli &&
mv woff2sfnt-zopfli sfnt2woff-zopfli /usr/local/bin &&
rm -rf ../woff

Once the tool has been compiled and installed, convert a TTF or OTF file to WOFF by running:

sfnt2woff-zopfli myfont.ttf

To convert all files in the current directory to WOFF:

for i in *; \
do sfnt2woff-zopfli "$i"; \
done

WOFF2 CLI converter (with Brotli compression)

Compile and install Google's woff2 tools by pasting all of the following code into a terminal:

cd woff2 &&
make clean all &&
mv woff2_compress woff2_decompress woff2_info /usr/local/bin &&
rm -rf ../woff2
