[edit]Are there any JIS X 0213 characters which cannot be encoded with a single Unicode code point? --84.61.22.108 13:57, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, there are 25 such characters. The Unicode Consortium considers they should be encoded using combining characters even though that approach requires a complicated rendering software. --Tenpa 01:44, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Why are there 25 JIS X 0213 characters which cannot be encoded with a single Unicode code point? --84.61.73.110 17:44, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
- For example, JIS X 0213 incorporated katakana to (ト) with handakuten (゜). This character is used to write the Ainu language. However, Unicode didn't assign a single code point to this character because it could be represented by katakana to and combining handakuten (U+30C8 followed by U+309A). And there are 24 more similar cases. Unicode seems avoiding to incorporate more 'pre-composed' characters. ---I can't determine it is a good policy or not. --61.125.217.248 14:49, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
Are there any JIS X 0213 characters for which the Plane 2 (SIP) of Unicode must be used? --84.61.60.173 13:45, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
From the article:
Unicode version 3.2 incorporated all characters of JIS X 0213 except for the characters claimed to be able to be represented by combining characters.
Is this meant to say this?
Unicode version 3.2 incorporated all characters of JIS X 0213 except for the characters that could be represented using combining characters.
If so, please rephrase it accordingly, because the current version is confusing and grammatically incorrect. Shinobu 17:32, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
JIS X 0212
[edit]I have just added some material relating to JIS X 0212. I am in the process of writing a short entry for JIS X 0212, and when that's done, I'll return and link it back.JimBreen (talk) 22:39, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
Background
[edit]I intend to add some background information on JIS X 0213, and why it replaced JIS X 0212. I'd be interested if anyone else has some perspectives on this.JimBreen (talk) 22:39, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
