I think I saw that one but the weird final part of the name put me off. For comparison here's how they reference the OpenType (font) spec :- https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/Typography/OpenTypeSpecification.aspx -phil. On 10/24/16, 9:10 AM, Vadim Pakhnushev wrote: My go-to place for BMP spec is

I've poked around the Microsoft website and didn't turn up a location I am sure we could rely on. A top-level link to microsoft.com and some words that the format was devised by Microsoft for Windows may be the best we can do. -phil. On 10/24/16, 8:54 AM, Brian Burkhalter wrote: I suspected as

I suspected as much. Could be that for BMP we are out of luck as there is no “real” specification AFAIK. Brian On Oct 24, 2016, at 8:30 AM, Philip Race wrote: > Do not point to wikipedia. > If we must point to external links we want to point to a specification in the >

Do not point to wikipedia. If we must point to external links we want to point to a specification in the most "official" place that exists .. one maintained by the owner of that spec. Strictly that even becomes a part of the SE spec. Wikipedia is not a place we'd ever want to say Java SE

Hi Jay, That works for me but there is no precedent for pointing to Wikipedia from JDK Java or HTML files. I wonder whether there are any guidelines on which external sites may be linked? There is also this one [1] which in turn points to Wikipedia and some other references. Thanks, Brian
