IE will interpret EOTL files as if they were EOTC, because there is nothing in EOTL that is contrary to the EOTC spec. Other browsers will not interpret EOTC files as if they were EOTL, because there are things in EOTC that are contrary to the EOTL spec. I don't know how much more plainly that that can be stated. At some point, the idiosyncratic refusal to accept this must be put down to either bad faith or dimness. JH
