Font Embedding Permission Checker

Read a font's fsType bits to confirm you can legally embed it on a website or in an app.

Runs entirely in your browser — no upload, no registration.

What this tool does

Parses the OS/2 table and decodes the fsType flags that font vendors use to declare embedding rights.

Why you might need it

Commercial fonts often forbid web embedding without a separate licence — check before you self-host.

How to use it

  1. Drop a font file.
  2. Read each permission below.
  3. If 'Restricted License' is set, you need a webfont licence.

fsType is metadata set by the foundry. It is not a substitute for reading the EULA — some foundries leave fsType at zero even when their licence forbids web use.
