U+F900 "豈" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+F900 "豈" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph from the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, which was originally encoded to preserve the distinct character forms used in older East Asian character set standards, such as those from Japan, China, or Korea, that differ slightly from their unified counterparts in the main CJK Unified Ideographs block. Specifically, U+F900 corresponds to the CJK unified ideograph U+8C48 (豉), but it is included in the compatibility range to maintain round-trip conversion compatibility with legacy character encodings, where it may have had a different appearance or usage. This character can be found in historical texts or digital documents that relied on earlier encoding systems, and it is rendered as a visually identical or near-identical variant of the standard character, depending on the font and application used.
