There are some code points that lack their corresponding glyphs:

誥記摠僚傘咨辦惶諍宦訔耄

Hi! Thanks for this issue.

Unfortunately the characters are not present in the source (which are scanned ancient books), therefore they currently fallback to the Source-Han-Serif-based fallback font, which look like this:

They're not as good as the authentic characters, but look ok when they occasionally appear in a paragraph. For example:

The fallback font can be downloaded separately from the releases as qiji-fallback.ttf. Or, more conveniently, download qiji-combo.ttf which bundles the authentic glyphs with the fallback glyphs.
