About copy and paste symbols

Text symbols behave like letters. That is why they survive in Discord names, spreadsheet headers and CVs where colour emojis are stripped or look unprofessional.

If a symbol appears as an empty box, the font on that device does not include it. Sticking to the commonly supported sets below avoids the problem.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a symbol and an emoji?

Emojis render as colour pictures from an emoji font. Text symbols render in your normal font and colour, so they work in usernames, documents and spreadsheets.

Why does a symbol show as a box?

The device font does not include that character. Choose a more widely supported alternative from the sets above.
