Check the tr38 , from the description of kTotalStrokes, it provides stroke count data for simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese. Then, I don't have concern. Thanks! Claire. On Fri, Jun 8, 2012 at 2:33 PM, Claire Ho (賀靜蘭) wrote: > Hi Mark >

Assuming that SignWriting display controls can be applied to _any_ character will result in a large number of alternate encoded representations for text elements. If encoded, then I will expect UTC to stipulate that rendering engines must not allow such display controls to affect the display of

Julian, if you look closely, it is not actually a turned s, but something created with a turned s in mind. In the very sort of the alphabet, the regular s has equal (or near-equal) top and bottom bowls. the "turned" one has an emphasized upper bowl, which of course stems from the idea of a turned s

But if that linked image contains the full alphabet, then there is no regular d, which would be confusable with the rotated p. So in fact, encoding as d would not seem wrong (char d was chosen for that sound, but because there is no [d]-like sound, it was "reinterpreted" as a turned p (like the tur
