- 5,185 mappings that correspond to the 5,185 new characters in Unicode
Version 16.0 were changed.
- The sources and build scripts were added.
Note: The sources and build scripts are not packaged as they require
Java, which Cygwin does not support.
NOTE: A High Efficiency alternative with cmap table Format 13
Many-to-One Range Mappings subtable is included, which may not be
supported by some Adobe and Windows apps, but is only 517KB, 6% of the
size of the 8MB cmap table Format 12 Segmented Coverage subtable
alternative.
Both alternatives cmap tables include Windows required Format 4 Segment
Mapping to Delta Values subtable, but that of the High Efficiency
alternative is an empty stub subtable.
