Emojis are not getting rendered #81

I'm trying to render emojis in the pdf ex pdf.Cell(nil, "🤨 Colbert")

But this doesn't get rendered at all. Do I need to make any special configurations to get this working?

Does the font you have selected include emojis? Because as far as I know gopdf doesn't fallback to another typeface if a character is missing from the current typeface. :slightly_smiling_face:

@oneplus1000 can you close this issue if it has been resolved? It seems like @eprovst gave the best response. It's not an issue but a misunderstanding about how fonts are used.
