ExtractTtc: Ruby gem to extract TTF from TTC

Purpose

The gem lets you extract individual TrueType font files (.ttf) from a TrueType Collection file (.ttc).

ExtractTtc wraps functionality provided by stripttc.c, originally from the FontForge project as an FFI extension.

Specifically, stripttc.c is part of the contribs directory of FontForge, which is assigned the BSD 3-Clause license.

Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

gem 'extract_ttc'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install extract_ttc

Usage

ExtractTtc.extract("path/to/ttc/Helvetica.ttc")

Would extract contained TTF files from TTC to a current directory.

Development

We are following Sandi Metz’s Rules for this gem, you can read the description of the rules here. All new code should follow these rules. If you make changes in a pre-existing file that violates these rules you should fix the violations as part of your contribution.

Setup

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/fontist/extract_ttc

Setup your environment:

bin/setup

Run the test suite:

bundle exec rspec

If any changes are made in the C code, then the extension needs to be recompiled:

bundle exec rake recompile

You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
