U+FF32 "R" Fullwidth Latin Capital Letter R Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+FF32 "R" Fullwidth Latin Capital Letter R is a typographic variant of the standard Latin capital letter R, designed to occupy the same width as a CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) character, typically one em wide, for consistent alignment in East Asian text environments. It is part of the Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms block, encoding the uppercase R at a single character width that matches ideographic squares, commonly used in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean mixed-script documents where proportional Latin letters might otherwise disrupt vertical or monospaced formatting. This character allows the capital R to blend seamlessly with fullwidth punctuation, numbers, and other East Asian characters, preserving visual harmony in digital and print media such as web pages, word processors, and retro computer terminals requiring monospaced layout.
