How to extract images from '/System/Library/Fonts/Apple Color Emoji.ttc'? #13

How to extract images from '/System/Library/Fonts/Apple Color Emoji.ttc'? I also tried using it on https://github.com/samuelngs/apple-emoji-linux/releases/download/latest/AppleColorEmoji.ttf , but it said:

❯ java -jar ~/bin/BitsNPicas.jar extractsbix AppleColorEmoji.ttf
Processing /Users/evar/TMP/AppleColorEmoji.ttf... no sbix table found.

For a TTC file, you need to split it into its constituent TTFs. I have tools in other repositories that can do that:

https://github.com/kreativekorp/pushchar: java com.kreative.pushchar.test.TtcUnpack AppleColorEmoji.ttc

https://github.com/kreativekorp/charset: python bin/ttc-unpack.py AppleColorEmoji.ttc

For the version in the apple-emoji-linux repository, that uses a different format, so instead of extractsbix you need to use extractcbdt: java -jar ~/bin/BitsNPicas.jar extractcbdt AppleColorEmoji.ttf
