There seems to be four competing standards to encode them (see for info and links). The font contains all of the emoji in Unicode 9.0 and includes support for ZWJ sequences, skin tone diversity, and country flag emoji.Multicolor fonts seem to be becoming popular, especially for representing Emoji. EmojiOne Color is an open source color font in OpenType-SVG format built by Adobe from the EmojiOne 2.3 artwork designed by Denis Denz and produced by Rick Moby.
![]() Emojione Mozilla Font Skin Tone Diversity![]() But as a developer of a chat application (likeSlack, but free) which also has an Emacs client, colour fonts in Emacs would beIf your application needs that, you don't have to wait for this to beSupported in the core. WDYT?I hear you, and agree with you. The patches that allowed this toFunction on MacOS were small I wonder if it would be the same onAccording to the discussion about the inclusion of the Mac port, itSeems that this code should be removed from the mainline if we requireMulticolor font implementations on free platforms first. The relevant bits of code were merged fromHave similar features on GNU/Linux. We also don't support emoji modifiers and emoji variationLooking at the code in more detail suggests that it in fact does onMac, in macfont.m. Brother twain driver for mac os xMicrosoft does it with multiple layers of single-color SVGs. For example, Apple does it by packaging a collection of PNGs and calling that a font. There are various implementations of multicolor fonts, as pointed out by the document that I originally linked to. But my question was not about this it was about fonts that embed truly multicolor images for specific codepoints (support for variation selectors is another question entirely, I believe). I'm rather familiar with these documents. You should find the necessaryI may have misunderstood you, Eli, but I don't think this would work: the Emoji in the fonts that I was discussing are not monochrome.On the other hand, it is quite possible to leverage Emacs' support for inline graphics to replace certain unicode characters or character sequences with multicolor image renditions.Read the stuff I pointed to: each emoji has a B&W variant (which isWhat you get from Emacs now) and color variants, selected by variationThanks Eli.
