ASS Subsetter - Embed Fonts in ASS Subtitles

[MontageSubs 0]

Hi, I'm Meow P from MontageSubs.

I'm a subtitle creator. When I design subtitles with custom fonts and careful typesetting, I want that work to look good on every device you watch on. But it often doesn't. Android TV, different players, different systems all render fonts differently.

Emby actually supports a solution: embedded fonts in ASS files. If fonts are embedded, your typesetting stays consistent everywhere. But almost no subtitle creators use this feature because it needs command-line tools. There's no simple interface.

Font embedding first gained prominence in CJK communities, but it benefits everyone: consistent typesetting across all devices.

I built ASS Subsetter, a browser-based tool, so subtitle creators can easily embed fonts. This means better typesetting for you.

Features:
    - Embeds fonts directly into ASS/SSA files
    - Optimizes draw commands to reduce file size
    - Runs locally in your browser, no files sent to servers
    - Supports 10 languages
