Hey guys - does Textpad support emojis? I'm opening a file that contains them and getting the "WARNING contains characters that do not exist in code page 1252..."

8.1.1 supports Unicode, hence Emojis.
Any version before 8.0 does not.
Which did you try? Can said file be downloaded from somewhere?

OpenSansEmoji.ttf then you get it as expected:
