Summary description: Use color emojis more conveniently
Announcement text:
The bxcoloremoji package lets users output color emojis in LaTeX documents. Compared to other packages with similar functionality, this package has the following merits: * It supports all major LaTeX engines. * Emojis can be entered as the characters themselves, as their Unicode code values, or as their short names. * It works reasonably well in PDF strings when using hyperref. * Emojis can be handled properly even in Japanese typesetting environments. This package has been widely used among the Japanese LaTeX community, but there are already many emoji packages on CTAN and TeX Live. To avoid uploading a large amount of emoji image data that are essentially identical, the package was revised in version 1.0 so that the image output was delegated to the twmojis package. Therefore, this package now contains no image data.
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/bxcoloremoji The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/bxcoloremoji/
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese
CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs
