U+FA3E "慨" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# Unicode Character

U+FA3E "慨" CJK Compatibility Ideograph-# is a compatibility ideograph included in the Unicode standard to preserve the shape and usage of a Chinese character that was encoded in earlier East Asian character sets, specifically for compatibility with older text processing systems. This character is part of the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block, which contains precomposed or variant forms of standard Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters that were defined separately in legacy standards. U+FA3E itself is a variant of the character U+6A19 (標), meaning "sign" or "mark," and its inclusion allows modern software to correctly display and exchange text that was originally created using these older encodings without losing information.
