In Artemis, with a multi-fasta sequence file, the options for the annotation file are to use a GFF file or to in some way to concatenate the EMBL/GenBank feature table (adjusting the coordinates to match the correct position of the assembly). This is what union¹ should do with EMBL files. I am not sure why this wasn¹t successful for you. You obviously do need to use -feature¹ with union to get the feature table included:
union feature osf embl entry.embl Using GFF and union are the options used here.
