U+E015C "󠅜" Variation Selector-109 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

󠅜

U+E015C "󠅜" Variation Selector-109 is a special invisible formatting code within the Unicode standard, belonging to a series of standardized variation selectors used to request a specific glyph variant for a preceding base character. Instead of representing a visible symbol or letter, its sole purpose is to modify how a base character is displayed, signaling to a compliant font or rendering system to choose a particular stylistic alternative, such as a different shape or orientation. This selector is part of a numbering system from 1 to 256, though many of the higher numbers, including this one, are designated as private use and have no fixed, universal meaning, meaning their effect depends entirely on custom fonts or software implementations that define them.
