I've added a "Color font" option - not 100% sure it's exactly what you had in mind, so let me know. It embeds original antialiased pixels into the TTF (CBDT + sbix tables), with regular outlines as a fallback. Note that support depends on the renderer/browser - Chrome, Godot and macOS show color glyphs, Firefox and Unity TMP will show the plain outline fallback.
Wow that was so fast! Thank you. That's exactly what I was looking for
I'm having two little issues: 1) How do you name the font? It seems like the font name was taken from the Characters area and it's named !123456 etc. Also, the font works normally in most applications but in Affinity it looks crazy but the black and white fonts looked normal. Any idea what's up?
1) Font name is back. 2) I can't guarantee color fonts render right in every app - but for Affinity, try the new "Outline fallback" checkbox and uncheck it before downloading. It's on by default since that's better (I think) in most cases.
@edit Ok, I downloaded Affinity and it looks correct now with "Outline fallback" unchecked.

This is amazing. I searched for like an hour for something that does this
Thanks! Please leave a rating - it helps others find this tool!
Done! Is it possible to make this tool create a color TTF so I can bake anti-aliasing into the font?

I'm implementing two more options related to scale (better quality) and the COLR Layers, which also has its pros and cons.
