Unicode mismatches

edit

Maybe I missed it but I can't find a mapping table or image for XCCS in the references. I've fixed some of the mismatches between the hex Unicode code point and the character displayed but without a good reference I can't figure out these:

  • Xerox character, hex Unicode code point vs character displayed
  • 0x2131 U+205E VERTICAL FOUR DOTS vs U+203E OVERLINE
  • 0x2133 U+309D HIRAGANA ITERATION MARK vs U+30FD KATAKANA ITERATION MARK
  • 0x2134 U+309E HIRAGANA VOICED ITERATION MARK vs U+30FE KATAKANA VOICED ITERATION MARK
  • 0x2135 U+30FD KATAKANA ITERATION MARK vs U+309D HIRAGANA ITERATION MARK
  • 0x2136 U+30FE KATAKANA VOICED ITERATION MARK vs U+309E HIRAGANA VOICED ITERATION MARK
  • 0x213E U+2010 HYPHEN vs U+2013 EN DASH
  • 0x2169 U+2642 MALE SIGN vs U+2640 FEMALE SIGN
  • 0x216A U+2640 FEMALE SIGN vs U+2642 MALE SIGN
  • 0x2221 U+21C6 LEFTWARDS ARROW OVER RIGHTWARDS ARROW vs U+25C6 BLACK DIAMOND
  • 0x2275 U+2669 QUARTER NOTE vs U+266D MUSIC FLAT SIGN
  • 0x2276 U+266A EIGHTH NOTE vs U+2669 QUARTER NOTE
  • 0x245D U+307D HIRAGANA LETTER PO vs U+3071 HIRAGANA LETTER PA
  • 0x2821 U+2500 BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT HORIZONTAL vs U+2502 BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT VERTICAL (U+2500 is also used for 0xEFE5)
  • 0x2822 U+2502 BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT VERTICAL vs U+2500 BOX DRAWINGS LIGHT HORIZONTAL (U+2502 is also used for 0xEFE4)
  • 0x2840 U+2543 BOX DRAWINGS LEFT UP HEAVY AND RIGHT DOWN LIGHT vs U+2542 BOX DRAWINGS VERTICAL HEAVY AND HORIZONTAL LIGHT
  • 0x302B U+831C CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-831C vs U+831B CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-831B
  • 0x302F U+6E25 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-6E25 vs U+6E45 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-6E45
  • 0x3054 U+60DF CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-60DF vs U+60BF CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-60BF
  • 0x305C U+79FB CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-79FB vs U+79BF 禿 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-79BF
  • 0x3061 U+8D03 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-8D03 vs U+8863 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-8863
  • 0x3062 U+8863 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-8863 vs U+8B02 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-8B02
  • 0x3063 U+8B02 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-8B02 vs U+9055 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-9055
  • 0x3064 U+9055 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-9055 vs U+907A CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-907A
  • 0x3068 U+57DF CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-57DF vs U+80B2 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-80B2
  • 0x3069 U+80B2 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-80B2 vs U+57DF CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-57DF
  • 0x306B U+78EF CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-78EF vs U+78BF CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-78BF
  • 0x3076 U+54ED CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-54ED vs U+54BD CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-54BD
  • 0x3141 U+88B7 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-88B7 vs U+834F CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-834F (U+88B7 is also used for 0x3041)
  • 0x3142 U+834F CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-834F vs U+990C CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-990C
  • 0x315D U+689E CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-689E vs U+698E CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-698E
  • 0x3167 U+6314 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-6314 vs U+63F4 CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-63F4
  • 0xEF6F U+2238 DOT MINUS vs U+2235 BECAUSE (U+2268 is also used for 0x2235)

Additionally, these Xerox characters are currently mapped to Unicode letters. I think they should be mapped to similar looking symbols but I'm not sure:

  • 0x0027 U+02BC ʼ MODIFIER LETTER APOSTROPHE
  • 0x00C1 U+02CB ˋ MODIFIER LETTER GRAVE ACCENT
  • 0x00C2 U+02CA ˊ MODIFIER LETTER ACUTE ACCENT
  • 0x00C3 U+02C6 ˆ MODIFIER LETTER CIRCUMFLEX ACCENT
  • 0x00CC U+02CD ˍ MODIFIER LETTER LOW MACRON
  • 0x00CF U+02C7 ˇ CARON

Hopefully these mismatches can be resolved. DRMcCreedy (talk) 21:33, 22 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
