[Interest] Freetype and color fonts

[Illogica Studio]

Hey,
thanks for your reply.
I'm using Qt5.6. I create a small QtQuick project, in a subfolder font/ I
put a bunch of fonts from Google downloaded from
https://www.google.com/get/noto/
This is my source file:

import QtQuick 2.6

import QtQuick.Window 2.2


Window {

    visible: true

    height: 480

    width: 640


    FontLoader{

        id: fontTest

        //source: "font/NotoSerif-Regular.ttf" //works

        //source: "font/NotoSans-Italic.ttf"   //works

        source: "font/NotoColorEmoji.ttf"    // does NOT work

    }


    Text {

        text: qsTr("Hello World")

        font.pointSize: 35

        anchors.centerIn: parent

        font.family: fontTest.name

    }

}


In the fontTest font loader component I commented out a couple of fonts
that work.
When I try to load NotoColorEmoji.ttf the only error I obtain is
QML FontLoader: Cannot load font:
"file:///E:/prod/qt/FontTest/font/NotoColorEmoji.ttf"
