@heejinlee07, this might've been an issue once, but not anymore. The symbol you have is not displaying because it is not U+00B7. It is U+2219, which the font does not support. I've had this switch happen to me various times when copy/pasting (very frustrating). To show that U+00B7 does in fact work, you can force-embed U+00B7 by adding {"\xB7"} to your text.
(Also, you mention that Oswald supports the character, which is true, but keep in mind that the text it appears in is styled with "Times-Roman" not "Oswald". See line 211)
@diegomura, Please advise: This is still an issue for the character U+00A9 (copyright symbol © ). It does not display, regardless of the font, despite the fact that the fonts I've tried definitely support the glyph (confirmed with fontdrop.info).

II had the same issue with the copyright symbol © (\u00a9), but replacing it with the following combination of unicode codes it worked: \u00a9\ufe0f , that it's the equivalent of the emoji version as far as I could understand: ©️ .
