# Noto Emoji
2015-08-17 21:53:17 +00:00
Color and Black-and-White Noto emoji fonts, and tools for working with them.
The color version must be built from source.
## Building NotoColorEmoji
Building NotoColorEmoji requires a few files from nototools. Clone a copy from
https://github.com/googlei18n/nototools and either put it in your PYTHONPATH or
use 'python setup.py develop' ('install' currently won't fully install all the
data used by nototools). You will also need fontTools, get it from
https://github.com/behdad/fonttools.git.
Then run make. NotoColorEmoji is the default target. It's suggested to use -j,
especially if you are using zopflipng for compression. Intermediate products
(compressed image files, for example) will be put into a build subdirectory; the
font will be at the top level.
## Using NotoColorEmoji
NotoColorEmoji uses the CBDT/CBLC color font format, which is supported by Android
and Chrome/Chromium OS, but not MacOS. Windows supports it starting with Windows 10
Anniversary Update. No Browser on MacOS supports it, but Edge (on latest Windows)
does. Chrome on Linux will support it with some fontconfig tweaking, see

[issue #36](https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-emoji/issues/36). Currently we do
not build other color font formats.
