This package enables exporting OTF/TTF into EOT format (for MSIE).
EOT is the only web font format not supported by FontForge.

Having such converter also enables selected fonts being additionally
packaged in the formats for web (beside OTF/TTF: WOFF, SVG, EOT),
if there will be such need/fonts SIG decides so.  Also Liberation
might be distributed as an additional archive of web font formats.
CC'ing people I had a discussion about this.

Description:
The eot-utils are the two programs mkeot and eotinfo.
The former creates an EOT (Embedded OpenType) file from an OpenType
or TrueType font and the URLs of one or more Web pages, respecting
the TrueType embedding bits.
The eotinfo program displays EOT meta-data in a human-readable way.
