The Pollard Script is in Unicode now, so its spot is deprecated. ==Code2002 == This is a third font in the ''Code 2000'' family. The glyphs in this font are not part of either ''Code 2000'' or ''Code 2001''. This font partially covers the Unicode Plane Two [[~~Mapping of Unicode character planes#Supplementary Ideographic Plane\|~~Supplementary Ideographic Plane]]. This is a Supplementary Plane used for Chinese, Japanese, and Korean [[ideograph]]s. Roughly 40% of Plane Two is included in this font. ==See also== [[Unicode typeface]] * [[Free software Unicode typefaces]] * [[Unicode]] Other well-known Unicode fonts include: * [[Arial Unicode MS]] Line 192 ⟶ 219: * [[TITUS Cyberbit Unicode]] * [[Free UCS Outline Fonts]] == References == <references/> ==External links== *~~[http~~ https://www.~~code2000~~code2001.~~net/ Code2000 site]~~com [[Category:Unicode typefaces]] [[Category:IPA typefaces]] ▲[[de:Code2000]] ~~[[ru:Code2000]]~~ ~~[[uk:Code2000]]~~
