fde101 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 If it were a normal font, I wouldn't expect it I would think this more likely a lack of support for color fonts (guessing SVG fonts)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the screen shot of Aff Pub Beta, you can see that the Edit menu says "emoji & symbols", also the type of font says "apple color emoji", if isn't supported why is in this menu?

stuckfly Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Emoji should be supported in a professional publishing app, because it's a common subject of publishing projects. Look, I don't use them in my communication, but today I tried the beta version to do a real-world project about the impact of emoji. I had to use cropped screen-shots of them to put them in my project. I do not know what awful coding is required to support these emoji things, but please give it a better attempt. They are here to stay. They will not go away. So find a way. OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fde101 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Maybe instead of using emoji we need to start using pictures of emoji? Seems I'm getting all emojinal about this one... jmwellborn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubercool Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 OK, it's 2020, do you know where your emojis are? That menu item still doesn't work. Inserting images of emojis is a PITA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that Affinity doesn't support most glyphs of its related Apple font "Apple Color Emoji" – even though you may use it to insert some of its glyphs (try 'flags') + make them occur in the text frame they can get noted as "missing characters" in APub's Font Manager. Fun fact: even the 'invisible' emoji glyphs of this font do occur as desired in the Layer Panel as text frame layer preview: On 9/23/2018 at 9:35 PM, nautiloda said: if isn't supported why is in this menu? This menu entry is an Apple item, created by macOS. Similar to File > Share, which isn't really useful in Affinity, even though you may change your computers desktop image from within Affinity this way. macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
