Re: Concerning proposals

[Robert]

Hello, Unicoders!

When you make a given font within whence will be characters that've not been yet encoded into Unicode that you'd like to propose, you'd need to reside those proposed characters into the Private Use Zone subarea (U+E000-U+EFFF, U+F100-U+F8FF) of your given TrueType/EPS Type 1 font. The Symbol Encoding subsection (U+F000-U+F0FF) is reserved for symbol/dingbat (pictoral)-type fonts (fonts consisting mainly of simplified pictures). You may elect, besides or instead of doing a font, to provide little clipart pixs (B&W .GIFs, .BMPs, .JPGs, .PNGs, ...) for the additional characters you'd like to see admitted into Unicode.
When writing your proposal�while you may state your preferences about proposed codepoint positions for proposed characters, the final decision for that is up to WG2 and ISO-10646; these bodies decide on where proposed characters finally wind up!
Please visit the Unicode website, and download (like I have) the .PDF files for the various Roadmap charts.
Thank You!
