Emojis not showing correctly in gmail...

It seems that some emojis work, and some don't when trying to add them to a layout. For example in the attached screenshot I had the following emojis:???? ???? ????

One is how it looks in RED, the other is how it shows in Gmail when the email is sent. Oddly, the email displays fine on mobile (I checked ios at least), and in Outlook.

Hi Myles,
Can you share a link to the webpage so we can see the issue?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

I've attached the .RED file, and the resulting html.
The HTML will look fine if you open it, the issue is when displayed in gmail (as an html body) it does not display correctly. I'm not sure if this is limited to gmail, it could be other email clients as well.

Can you try resaving your red file and posting it again? I can't get it to load.

I can't upload the .RED file. It's not file specific though. If you create a test file and put an emoji in it, you'll see when sent to gmail, it displays stretched.
