U+329E "㊞" Circled Ideograph Print Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
㊞
U+329E "㊞" Circled Ideograph Print is a CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) compatibility ideograph that represents the character for "print" or "seal" (印) enclosed within a circle. It is commonly used in East Asian contexts, particularly in Japan, where it appears as a visual symbol on documents, forms, or labels to indicate a place for a stamp or seal impression, such as in the phrase "印" (in) meaning "seal" or "stamp." This character is part of the CJK Compatibility block in Unicode, originally encoded to support legacy character sets used in telecommunication and printing systems, and it serves as a practical, compact notation for marking official or business-related copy operations.
