About FON files
FON files are a type of font file used by Microsoft Windows. They are commonly used to store bitmap fonts, but can also store vector fonts. FON files are not very widely used, and are often replaced with other font formats such as TrueType (.ttf) or OpenType (.otf).
Software that can be used to convert FON files include FontForge (https://fontforge.org/en-US/) and FontLab Studio (https://www.fontlab.com/font-editor/fontlab/). These programs can be used to convert FON files to other font formats, such as TrueType (.ttf) and OpenType (.otf).
When converting FON files, it is important to consider the compatibility of the font file with the intended application. For example, some applications may only be compatible with TrueType fonts, while others may only be compatible with OpenType fonts. Additionally, some applications may not be able to open FON files at all.
Another challenge when converting FON files is that they may contain a limited number of characters. This can make it difficult to properly convert them to other font formats, as some characters may be lost in the process. Additionally, FON files are not widely supported by many applications and operating systems, so it is important to consider the compatibility of the font file before conversion.
Due to the challenges of converting FON files, it is often easier and more reliable to use an online service such as Convert.Guru to convert FON files. Convert.Guru is a free and easy to use website that can quickly and reliably convert FON files to other font formats, such as TrueType (.ttf) and OpenType (.otf).
The FON Converter Story
The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.
When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.
Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best FON converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
