Share .eot files
Send an EOT file as a link, not an attachment
Drop your .eot file, name the link and send it. They download the original in one click — no attachment limit, no shared-drive permissions, nothing converted along the way.
- One-click download of the untouched original
- No attachment limit, no 'request access'
- Replace it later and the same link shows the new version
Drop the EOT file you want to share
Any other file works too — up to 25.0 MB, or 100.0 MB for a whole site
Why share a EOT file as a link?
Font files are small but get flagged and stripped more often than you'd think — mail filters don't like them and chat apps can't show them. A link delivers the file as a one-click download, or as a URL a web page can load directly.
Usually you'd be sending it to a designer, a developer or a printer who needs the typeface. They don't need an account, and you don't need to know which app or device they'll open it on.

Got it, opened fine on my phone 👍
On their side
What the person you send it to sees
They tap the link and the .eot file (Embedded OpenType font) downloads straight away, exactly as you uploaded it, ready to open in Internet Explorer only or whatever they use for .eot files.
What they need
- Internet Explorer only
- FontSquirrel, which generates EOT alongside other formats
- No account — the download starts from the link
Sending a EOT file: link vs. the usual ways
What happens to a .eot file when you email it, drop it in a chat or put it in a cloud drive — and what changes when you send a link instead.
Email attachment
Most mail providers cap attachments at roughly 20–25 MB, and every revision means another email.
Chat app
Chat apps can't preview fonts and may block unknown file types.
Cloud drive
Drives can't preview font files and need the recipient to have access first.
A 99helpers link
The original file, byte for byte, at a link you choose. Password it, see how often it's opened, and replace it at the same link whenever you need to.
Sharing takes about ten seconds
- 1
Drop it
Drag your .eot file onto the box, or pick it from your computer or phone.
- 2
Name the link
Choose the words: q3-report.99helpers.site reads better than a random string.
- 3
Send it anywhere
Paste the link into an email, a chat, a document, a bio or a QR code.
When people share font files like this
Handing over a brand font
Give a developer or designer the exact font file the brand uses.
Loading a font on a web page
Get a URL your CSS can point at.
Sending to a printer
Include the font so the print matches the proof.
Sharing your own typeface
Let people download a font you made.
What people send .eot files for
- Legacy sites that still support Internet Explorer
- Font stacks in older codebases
- Archived web projects
Before you share your EOT file
- Check the licence allows you to share or embed the font.
- Send every weight and style the design uses.
- Prefer WOFF2 for the web — it's the smallest.
- Include the licence file alongside.
Sending the link isn't the end of it
An attachment is gone the moment you press send. A link is still yours: you decide who can open it, what it shows and how long it stays.
Fix it after sending
Upload a corrected version to the same link. Everyone who has it sees the new one; old versions are kept.
Keep it private
Add a password so only the people you give it to can open the link.
Know it was opened
See how many times the link has been visited, so you're not left wondering.
Take it back
Delete it and the link stops working — something you can't do with an email attachment.
Sharing EOT files: questions
How do I share a .eot file?+
Drop it on this page, choose the words for your link, and publish. You get an address like your-name.99helpers.site to paste into an email, a chat, a document or a QR code. Whoever clicks it gets the file as a download.
Does the person I send it to need an account?+
No account is needed. They click the link and the file downloads; to open it they'll need Internet Explorer only or another app that reads .eot files.
Can I share an EOT file privately?+
Yes. Add a password when you publish and only people you give it to can open the link. You can also ask for a name and email before the file is shown.
What if I need to change the file after sending the link?+
Upload the new version to the same address. Everyone who has the link gets the update, and the previous versions are kept in case you need one back.
Can I share several EOT files at once?+
Yes. Drop a folder or a .zip instead of a single file and everything goes out under one link, each file at its own address inside it. How much you can upload depends on your plan — the limits are on the pricing page.
Can a website load the font from this link?+
Yes. The link serves the font file directly, so it can be used in an @font-face rule.
Sharing something else?
Want it online for good?
If the file should stay at a permanent public address — a download page, an embed, part of a site — see host an EOT font.
