Convert OTB FONT to EOT

The OTB file extension, standing for "OpenType Bitmap", is a specialized format used in X11 for bitmap-only font files. It is a variant of the SFNT (scalable font) file format, tailored to store bitmap representations of fonts without vector outlines. Historically, OTB was developed to support the efficient rendering of fonts on systems with limited resources, ensuring the high-quality display of text. This format is particularly useful in environments where rendering performance is critical, such as older display systems or embedded systems.

Embedded OpenType (EOT) is a compact font format developed by Microsoft for use on web pages. It embeds TrueType fonts into a website, enabling consistent and accessible typography across different platforms and browsers. Introduced in the late 1990s, EOT was designed to address the challenges of font compatibility and bandwidth limitations. It allows web designers to ensure a uniform appearance of text, thereby enhancing the visual consistency of online content. EOT files are primarily used in older web projects and have been largely superseded by the more versatile Web Open Font Format (WOFF).
