Render emojis with zwj

[wlt233]

What did you do?

from PIL import Image, ImageDraw, ImageFont

text = "👩‍🚒"

font = ImageFont.truetype("seguiemj.ttf", 100)
base = Image.new("RGB", (500, 300), "#FFF")
draw = ImageDraw.Draw(base)
draw.text((50, 50), text, font=font, embedded_color=True, fill="#000")
base.show()

E.g. 👩‍🚒 is encoded as:

• 👩 U+1F469
• U+200D (the ZWJ)
• 🚒 U+1F692

What did you expect to happen?

show a single emoji like in browser

What actually happened?

the emoji was split into three parts and rendered respectively

What are your OS, Python and Pillow versions?

• OS: Windows 10 Pro 22H2 19045
• Python: Python 3.9.6
• Pillow: 11.0.0.dev0 from Perform font fallback #6926

Works for me:

I suspect you are missing RAQM support. Please provide the output of the python3 -m PIL.report command or the import PIL.report Python statement to confirm.
