Hi all, Re the discussion about CJK, one of the cases brought up was U+76F4. For the benefit of those not familiar with CJK (and perhaps others might find this useful), I've collected together scans from various sources concerning this character (or characters, if the case may be): http://deall.ohio-state.edu/grads/chan.200/cjkv/u76f4/ The point is to show that the glyphs shown on the Unicode page are not necessarily representative fonts for the various locales (and I suspect the same is true for the ISO publication); as well as the variations in the two of the four dictionaries and one character set referenced by Unicode, commonly-used Truetype fonts, and a number of miscellaneous CJK hardcopy sources. Due to my field, a disproportionate number of examples are drawn from Chinese sources; however, I would like to hear comments on the Japanese and Korean sources I have in section #6 and #7, respectively. Note a variant form given for the Japanese source is very close to the so-called "Chinese form". Section #2 is given for reference given their importance to Unicode; I will try to add Morohashi's _Dai Kanwa Jiten_ in the near future. Section #3 is also given for reference, with a legacy character set that has mappings to Unicode. Section #4 is provided for the reference of those considering the "use an xxx font" solution. Section #5 provides some examples of the allowable variation in Chinese usage. I hope some interested parties will take the time to look through each image to get an first-hand idea of what the discussion is all about (and perhaps to see some non-electronic CJK materials, including that "Kangxi" thing that keeps being mentioned in the literature.) I feel that any discussion about unification in Unicode (Han or otherwise) is hampered by the difficulty of being familiar with all the examples brought up for and against particular arguments when one is unable to see them. (Can someone do something similar for the Latin script, incl. fraktur, uncials, etc?) Thomas Chan [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/lists/
