Zip file with a ODT file with emoji, and the converted PDF file

Hi Everyone,

I'm working on Ubuntu 20.04 (Focal), x86_64, fully patched. Ubuntu 20 has
LibreOffice 6.4.6.2 40 (Build:2).

I am using lowriter to convert an ODT to a PDF from the command line. The ODT
has emoji's in them, like:

    “Bonnie Conte shared "💋FUCK💋 ME💋 TONIGHT!!! 💋💋" with you.”

After processing with lowriter, the PDF lacks the emoji's:

    “Bonnie Conte shared "   FUCK   ME   TONIGHT!!!    " with you.”

The script I am using is pretty simple. Here is the relevant part:

    for odt_file in "${odt_files[@]}"
    do
        lowriter --convert-to pdf "${odt_file}"
    done

It is important the the emoji's survive since I am preparing a legal complaint.
I want to court to see an accurate representation of the email message.

==========

It is not clear to me if the bug report Component should be "Printing and PDF
export" or "Writer". My apologies if "Writer" is worng.
