problem with encodin utf-8 symbols [5]

I am using the latest version of Xshell 5. I have encounter two problems.

First, some special characters like: 🐳 💎 from zsh theme cannot displayed correct in my shell. Ref: image.png (27.5 KB)  

Env:
* Windows 7 with Xshell 5
* Ubuntu in Virtual machine
* zsh with spaceship-zsh-theme a.PNG (4.1 KB)  

Your case depends on the font of Windows. The Windows font that takes over does not have characters other than Linux fonts. Please see the attached image.

And among the various Windows fonts, fonts for terminal are limited.

In the previous reply I am using Windows 7.

It cannot display Node symbol in web UI and Xshell.

Now I am upgrade to Windows 10. It can display Node symbol in web UI.
But still cannot display in Xshell.

So, if symbols can display in web UI, it doesn't means it can display in Xshell? Right?

As mentioned above, fonts for terminal are limited. Web browsers have much more extensibility when it comes to character expressions compared to a terminal emulator.

The characters of the Web UI in the image seem to be using web fonts.
