Do you have a proposal for a neat solution?
We could just display the notes smaller or maybe try to alter the note text and display it differently... (Maybe on top of eachother?) Still trying to think of a neat way.

What solution do you use for double-digit Western Arabic numbers? Would the same solution work here?
The numbers in question (note that Hanzi only has 2 double-digit numbers to deal with whereas Western Arabic has 3) --
Instead of using numbers we continue using regular letters .. as is done when counting regular hex numbers... so from 0 - F instead of 0 - 15
@4ntn, is there a common solution to this problem in paper Sudoku books? Or elsewhere?
@Kamuno, @4ntn, perhaps letters is the solution? Don't use numbers at all?
I think I came up with a solution: Instead of using numbers 十一 (11) and 十二 (12), it is possible to use 百 (100) and 千 (1000), which are different numbers consisting of one single character. It is kind of weird, because numbers would jump from ...8, 9, 10 to 100 and 1000; but regarding Sudoku this doesn't really matter, and I think it would look good.

I haven't really done Sudokus on paper, but I guess you can just fit the 十一 and 十二. After all, it's easier to manage the space writing by hand. I haven't heard of any other solution.
When using chinese numbers, the number 10 is 十; 11 is 十一; and 12 is 十二. If 10 and 11 are marked on the same square (as small numbers), the 十 on both of them overlaps perfectly, making it impossible to discern whether number 10 is there or not.
