Re: test font with both SVG and COLR table

[Cosimo Lupo]

Hi Werner and all,

please find attached a test COLRv1 + SVG font, containing only one color glyph ✍ "WRITING HAND" (U+270D) emoji.

The font was built using nanoemoji using the following command, from the root of the noto-emoji repository:

$ nanoemoji --color_format=glyf_colr_1_and_picosvg --keep_glyph_names --pretty_print --family "Noto Color Emoji COLRv1 And SVG" svg/emoji_u270d.svg

Let me know if that is what you are looking for.

Cheers

Cosimo

This would be still very helpful, yes.  I think it would be helpful
for for fuzzing, too.  A single glyph (besides '.notdef) would be
enough.

Since the convenience stuff is tagged as experimental, and Alexei has
some serious concerns I probably won't change anything right now.

This is up to the application; there is no issue w.r.t. precendence at
all.
