Most glyphs are still fine with other operators. One answer I gave on irc is: if you want to do fancy stuff with text, you better control which fonts are involved, so use a custom context (which can avoid loading color glyphs for the emoji family). But that is not a great answer. Some ideas for a better one: - Add an api to find out if a fond has color glpyhs - Add an api to control loading of color glyphs - Clip when painting color glyphs to not affect the target outside the extent of the glyph > Oh and one more thing: Who updates cairo's docs and all the explanations > on the web page?
