You may chose to write a script that doesn't do it, it would simply not be considered a conformant implementation. OK, that's fine, thank you. I don't understand though how this comes within the scope of the W3C's work. What is the purpose of writing specifications that cover tools that play no part in the process of using WOFF files on the web? Are there equivalent W3C specs for the tools to make HTML files? Should there be? Cheers, Ben -- Ben Weiner | http://readingtype.org.uk/about/contact.html +44 (0) 7780 608 659
