'''Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms''' is the name of a [[Unicode block]] U+FF00–FFEF, provided so that older encodings containing both [[User:HarJIT/sandbox/Halfwidth- and fullwidth typographyforms|halfwidth and fullwidth]] characters can have lossless translation to/from Unicode. It is the last of the [[Basic Multilingual Plane]] excepting the short [[Unicode Specials|Specials]] block at U+FFF0–FFFF.
 
Range U+FF01–FF5E reproduces the characters of [[ASCII]] 21 to 7E as fullwidth forms. U+FF00 does not correspond to a fullwidth ASCII 20 (space character), since that role is already fulfilled by U+3000 "[[ideographic space]]".
