How to show Material Icons in HTML2Canvas

Question

I'm using HTML2Canvas (https://github.com/niklasvh/html2canvas) to render then save a div as a PNG. It all works perfectly fine, except that the Material Icons in that div are missing. Any tips? (I am a Javascript newbie)

Thanks

Never mind, just stumbled across a working solution - used the "IE9 or below" code

E.g.

 <i class="material-icons">&#xE839;</i>

Instead of

<i class="material-icons">star_half</i>
