I got a chinese font file (.ttf)
I want to use it in my web page by css3 (@font-face{ ... }).
but the file is too large (more than 5MB ) to load from the web service .
So I want to only reserve the fonts needed ( about 300 fonts ).
How can I delete a batch of unused fonts from ttf ?
Thank you very much ~

Re: How do I delete a Number of Unused Glyphs from a Font?
- Open the font in FontCreator
- Select the required glyphs (including those important glyphs at the start of the font)
- From the Edit menu, Invert selection
- Delete
- Save as a new font and install it to test.

I have a question about the step 2.Bhikkhu Pesala wrote:

Should I select more than 300 times ?
Does this tool has a function which can import a set of fonts as a area selected ?

Use Shift + Click to select a range of glyphs.
