They are a sort of grey area somewhere between being totally irrelevant and semantically distinct; for this reason, the Unicode consortium decided to introduce Ideographic Variation Sequences (IVS), consisting of a Unicode base character and one of 240 variant selectors (U+E0100-U+E01EF), instead of further extending the already huge code range for CJK characters.</p> -<p>An IVS is registered and unique; for further details please refer to Unicode Technical Report #37, the Ideographic Variation Database.

A default variant is the one you will get for that code point if you look it up in the standard Unicode cmap. A non-default variant is a different glyph.</p> </td></tr></table><br> |
