  • You need API key to connect to our server for font conversion. Our server converts your font and sends it back. You can get key from here. You can also generate Lite / Test API key from button at top of the plugin page. Note : Lite / Test API only allow single font conversion.
  • Use Any Font uses Font Conversion API developed by Dnesscarkey. Font conversion API helps the plugin to convert the font files in different format (woff, woff2 but not limited to) for faster loading, and multiple browser support. Plugins sends the request to Font conversion server with font files, font conversion server converts it and returns the converted files. Once the conversion is completed, font files are automatically deleted.

  • For font conversion, our plugin uses server2.dnesscarkey.org and server3.dnesscarkey.org and it is only dedicated to Use Any Font plugin.
