The CSS font-face property is great for web typography. Having to use images in order to get the correct typeface is a great sadness; one should be able to use vectors.

However, the TrueType renderers on many platforms have never been part of the attack surface before and putting them on the front line is a scary proposition. Esp on platforms like Windows where it's a closed-source blob running with high privilege.

Thus, the OpenType Condom (OTC) is designed to parse and serialise OpenType files, validating them and sanitising them as it goes. Most significantly, it removes hinting bytes from the files as it processes.
