'''Code2000''' is a pan-[[Unicode typefaces|Unicode digital font]], which includes [[Grapheme|characters]] and symbols from a very large range of [[writing system]]s. As of the current final version 1.171 released in 2008, Code2000 is designed and implemented by James Kass to include as much of the [[Unicode|Unicode 5.2 standard]] as practical (whereas 6.01 is the currently-released version), and to support [[OpenType]] digital typography features. Code2000 supports [[Basic Multilingual Plane]], while '''Code2001''' and '''Code2002''' as related beta fonts created by James Kass, supports characters in higher [[Mapping of Unicode character planes|Unicode planes]].

The Code2000 font was available as unrestricted [[shareware]], and the Code2001 and Code2002 fonts as [[freeware]], from the author's website until January 2011. The website subsequently went down, and the ___domain name was later taken by an Australian [[Computer programming|programming]] site. {{As of|2011|December}} there is no known official download site for the fonts.
