WEFT
Web embedding font tool. This Microsoft utility is used to create *EOT fonts - basically TrueType fonts that have been *subsetted and compressed for efficient *embedding in web pages. (This is an ethical way of embedding fonts, respecting the *embedding bits, unlike *TrueDoc.) You need Internet Explorer 4.0 to browse websites with EOT fonts. Microsoft maintains an official WEFT site with the downloadable, free "public preview" version of WEFT and instructions for using it.
