Yes, if you want a coloured background you will need to use pictures like WMF or PNG, not fonts.

But anytime I import a colored image it changes to black and white. Can you explain in more detail or point to some documentation. I've searched for importing images and cant find anything.

If you want to use a symbol with a coloured background in your applications you will have to use graphics, not fonts. Fonts do not have any colour attributes.
