BXcoloremoji Package Bundle

LaTeX: To use color emojis more conveniently

Overview

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 twemojis package. Therefore, this package now contains no image data.

System Requirements

• TeX format: LaTeX.
  • TeX engine: Anything that supports the ε-TeX extension.
