Source: Browser Default
U+FE17 "︗" Presentation Form for Vertical Left White Lenticular Bracket is a typographic glyph used in East Asian text layout, specifically designed for vertical writing systems where it functions as the left half of a white lenticular bracket. This character is part of the CJK Compatibility Forms block and serves as a presentation form that pairs with its right counterpart, U+FE18, to enclose text or annotations in a seamless vertical orientation. Its primary purpose is to provide proper visual alignment and spacing in traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean documents, ensuring that the bracket appears correctly rotated and positioned when text flows from top to bottom rather than left to right.
