U+F94C "樓" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+F94C "樓" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph primarily used in East Asian text processing, representing a variant of the CJK unified ideograph for “building” or “tower,” more commonly written as 樓 in Traditional Chinese or 楼 in Simplified Chinese. It belongs to the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, which was originally encoded to preserve the round-trip conversion integrity of older character sets like the Chinese National Standard CNS 11643, and it is considered a duplicate of its standard counterpart for legacy mapping purposes. In modern use, this character is retained for compatibility and is generally replaced by its unified equivalent in contemporary digital typography.
