U+F9CD "留" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+F9CD "留" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph from the Unicode CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, which was encoded to represent a variant form of the standard CJK unified ideograph U+7565 (略). This specific character corresponds to a Japanese industrial standard (JIS X 0208) glyph that differs slightly in stroke composition from its unified counterpart, allowing for round-trip conversion with older character sets without losing the original typographic form. It is primarily used in legacy text or specialized fonts where distinction between compatibility and standard forms is necessary, though modern systems typically prefer the unified character U+7565 for normal writing.
