+
+The font packages available on a desktop environment with a default
+FreeBSD installation do not support the
+[Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscellaneous_Symbols_and_Pictographs)
+Unicode range (U+1F300..U+1F5FF), which contains various dingbats
+and emoji.
+
+A nice vector font providing these symbols is however available
+from ports: `x11-fonts/symbola`.
+
+(Note: `x11-fonts/gnu-unifont` and `x11-fonts/gnu-unifont-ttf` are not
+nearly as exhaustive.)
