U+F9A6 "簾" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+F9A6 "簾" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph from the CJK Compatibility block, included for round trip compatibility with older East Asian character encoding standards. It corresponds to the CJK Unified Ideograph U+9126 "錦" (Traditional Chinese meaning "a kind of metal" or "to shine"), but with a standardized variant shape. This character is typically used in contexts where preserving the exact visual form from legacy sources is necessary, rather than for new text, and its usage is discouraged in favor of its unified counterpart.
