U+F9BE "料" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+F9BE "料" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph from the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, representing a variant form of the standard Chinese character "料" which means materials, ingredients, or to expect. It was originally encoded to preserve the shape of this character as it appears in older, pre-existing character set standards like the Japanese JIS X 0208 encoding, for the purpose of round-trip conversion compatibility. While visually identical or nearly identical to its standard counterpart, this compatibility character is not intended for general text use, and modern systems typically recommend using the ordinary character U+6599 "料" instead.
