Converting OTF to TTF is primarily a container re-label. If the OTF contains TrueType (quadratic Bézier) outlines, the conversion is lossless. If the OTF contains PostScript (CFF) outlines, some tools convert them to TrueType approximations, a subtle quality change with real-world implications for hinting.

For TrueType-outline OTFs the conversion is identical data in a different container. For CFF-outline OTFs the tool must approximate cubic Béziers with quadratic ones, which adds points and can slightly affect rendering at small sizes. Advanced OpenType features like CFF-specific hints are lost.
TTF runs on every OS, every browser, and every font-rendering engine. Legacy environments and embedded systems are most likely to require TTF specifically.
OTF (OpenType) is Microsoft and Adobe's extension of the TrueType format. It adds cubic Bézier (PostScript/CFF) glyph support plus rich typographic features: stylistic alternates, ligatures, small caps, contextual substitutions, and the full OpenType feature model. Professional typography depends on OTF's capabilities.
TTF (TrueType) was developed by Apple in the late 1980s and became the default desktop font format across every major OS. It describes glyphs with quadratic Bézier curves and ships uncompressed, which makes files straightforward to parse but larger than compressed alternatives. Every text-rendering system on the planet accepts TTF.
Lossless when the OTF contains TrueType outlines (quadratic Béziers). Slightly lossy when the OTF contains PostScript (CFF) outlines, because those need conversion to quadratic form for TrueType.
Most will. Ligatures, kerning, stylistic sets, and contextual substitutions all live in OpenType tables that TTF supports. CFF-specific hinting is an exception and is lost in conversion.

Yes. The converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your font files are never uploaded, never sent to a server, and never leave your device.
There's no hard limit. Font files are usually small (under a few MB), so even very large fonts process without issue. Variable fonts with many axes are handled cleanly.
