Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/54.0.2837.0 Safari/537.36 Example URL: http://eosrei.github.io/emojione-color-font/full-demo.html Steps to reproduce the problem: Install a color emoji font using one of the open standards and open a web page that displays emoji. What is the expected behavior? Chrome should support various open color emoji font standards including the one Google itself created. If you go here https://pixelambacht.nl/chromacheck/ it tests for compatibility and none of them are compatible. Interestingly enough it does seem to now support the Microsoft standard. This is the open font I installed to test. https://github.com/eosrei/emojione-color-font#install-on-windows Please note: The noto emoji font doesn't seem to be installable on Windows but the Emoji One OpenType SVG font is. What went wrong? Displays black and white emoji when color emoji are expected. Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A Did this work before? No Does this work in other browsers? N/A Chrome version: 54.0.2837.0 Channel: dev OS Version: 10.0 Flash Version: Google should consider releasing the noto color emoji font in other formats including the Microsoft format and OpenType SVG to improve compatibility.

Apparently, Chrome does support one of the formats and it was corrected on the test page. However, it would be nice if it supported OpenType SVG and the other formats as well on Windows and other OSes just to keep things consistent and more usable across the board. We've been talking about some of the problems here as well. I want to be able to use the noto color emoji font instead of Segoe but because Windows doesn't support installing it and Chrome doesn't support the other open formats it doesn't seem to be possible. https://github.com/googlei18n/noto-emoji/issues/43

Chrome supports the color font format of the underlying system, this is by design. |
