Please also let me know if you notice any glyph errors. However, if there are any characters that you would like to have added to BabelStone Han urgently just let me know (by twitter or email) and I will try to fast-track their inclusion in the font. I intend to add as many of these new characters to BabelStone Han as I can, but I will never be able to include anywhere near all the CJK ideographs that have been and will be added to Unicode, so I am concentrating on G-source additions (i.e. This font is under continuous development, as tens of thousands of additional CJK ideographs are scheduled for inclusion in Unicode over then next few years. The original CJK glyphs have been modified where appropriate to match the G-source glyphs given in the Unicode code charts. The merged font, comprising 14,907 CJK Unified Ideographs, was then converted to Unicode mappings, and has since been expanded to cover a wide range of traditional and simplified characters in the CJK and CJK Extension A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H blocks, as well as many general Unicode characters. * A plain text file listing all IDS sequences for CJK unified ideographs in Unicode version 15.0 is available as IDS.TXT.īabelStone Han was created by merging the "AR PL Mingti2L Big5" font (13,068 CJK Unified Ideographs) and "AR PL SungtiL GB" font (6,763 CJK Unified Ideographs), which were both released by Arphic Technology (文鼎科技) in 2001 under the original Arphic Public License.

However, it also includes a large number of characters used for Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese ( Chữ Nôm), and Zhuang ( Sawndip).
It is a Song/Ming style (宋体/明體) font, with glyphs modelled on the official character forms used in the People's Republic of China, and is primarily intended for writing Modern Standard Chinese, Classical Chinese, and various Sinitic languages and dialects. 15.0.5 is a free Unicode CJK font with over 53,000 Han characters ( hanzi, kanji, hanja), and 63,570 Unicode characters in total.
