Out of curiosity, I downloaded the NoTo Color Emoji font: win 10 won't recognize that as a valid fond and display it, or install it. No evidence of a corrupted zip file, either. I will re-download it again in a few days and see ...

Confirmed: The color Emoji fonts is not valid on Win 10. The regular Emoji font does install, though, but Word refuses to accept it. The font in Word keeps switching to Courier!
[edit] I tried Noto Sans Batak. It installs on Win 10, works in Excel, will not work in Word or Adobe's Photoshop CS2. I'm beginning to get a bad feeling about these fonts By the way: I use MS Office 2010.

Hi Cornelius, thanks for the heads-up on the Color Emoji set in Win 10.
I interpret your additional reports on those fonts in various apps as indicative of the fact we are a long way, yet, from consistency in handling Unicode.
cheers, Bill

I don't need all of them, just the English ones, and then Hebrew for my studies of the Kabbalah and Tarot, but I prefer Hebrew with serifs, which they don't have. Looks nice and old; more traditional.

What, it doesn't support Klingon!?

It is a nice idea, however Monotype missed something there...Take the Noto Sans and Noto Sans Hebrew...Both have coverage for the Basic Latin code-point...However those are totally differ...The size factor, the letter spacing and the pen width are all different between the two!!!
(And I do not know how it is with other languages, but in Hebrew it is almost unreadable on continuous text)

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

I searched google for how to do something. Turns out I found a link to an answer I posted years ago in QA for somebody else.
I'm glad CP can remember things longer than I can.

Embarrassing that, isn't it?
I've done it a couple of times as well...

So, the question is, you don't remember the stuff you used to know a year ago?

Many. many decade ago I worked for a large British Airline and called the technical help desk about using a particular feature. They claimed they didn't know how to help me and referred me to a "guy who knows all about this stuff"... it turns out that was me! So I explained it all to myself since I am a helpful kind of guy.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
