Code Table Component Input Method Characters

December 2007

This table contains 35 mappings of encodings for component input method characters from the East Asian Coded Character set (ANSI/NISO Z39.64, or "EACC") to character encodings in the Private Use Area (PUA) of the Universal Character Set (UCS, ISO-IEC 10646)/Unicode. Character codes are given in hexadecimal notation. Each character is presented on a separate row. The first column contains the MARC-8 EACC 24-bit code (in hex), the second column contains the corresponding UCS/Unicode 16-bit code (in hex), the third column contains the UTF-8 code (in hex) for the UCS character, the fourth column contains a representation of the character (where possible), the fifth column contains a character name or description. Most East Asian ideographs are not given unique names in the MARC-8 or UCS/Unicode. For some characters alternate encodings in UCS/Unicode and UTF-8 are given. When that occurs the alternate UCS/Unicode 16-bit code column and alternate UTF-8 code column follow the character name. The alternative UCS/Unicode character codes are provided for cases where MARC-8 characters were mapped to UCS/Unicode characters in the Private Use Area (PUA). The alternative character code is a defined Unicode character which should be supported by applications that claim to support the full repertoire of defined Unicode characters. The characters in this table are sorted in EACC character code order.


Not all characters display in all browsers. We have attempted to allow for font families that show each character set, but you must have one of these fonts on your computer. See the W3C site for a discussion of fonts: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/fonts.html#generic-font-families.
