Hmm, it would be hard to map an emoji char to fontawesome char. I just showed fontawesome as an example for usage. For your case, maybe the free OpenSansEmoji font from here can help: https://github.com/MorbZ/OpenSansEmoji Then try creating a simple {your unicode string here} and see if it

Re: How to display a unicode char (emoji) in TLF (RichEdit control)

Hey Om: Good suggestion, I use fontAwesome and love it. How do you map the Unicode emoji char that is entered by the iOS softkeyboard to an equivalent fontAwesome character? That would be super helpful! My only other concern there is embedding multiple fonts in the TLF code. I have tried

Thanks Clint for your suggestion but this approach doesn't work either. Tried using every way I know how to assign the content to the RichText control. It could still be my error on how I'm assigning content to the TLF document. There must be some way to make this work since on can supposedly

as the link mentions… this most likely won't work on android (or windows) as they don't have access to the apple emoji font. On Mon, Apr 17, 2017 at 3:28 PM, Clint M wrote: > maybe this? > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37192684/stagetext- >
