2 years ago As of 2.001, while this left stroke thing in the 黑 component was made more consistent in HK/TW, I suggest CID 46941 be renamed to "uni9ED5-TW", CID 46942 be renamed to "uni9ED5-JP", and minor adjustments to the 冘 component for 46942 will still have to be done for consistency sake as shown below.
CID 46942 (uni9ED5-CN) will be mapped to JP and KR once adjustment is done.
EDIT: Maybe keep the CN name for uni9ED5-CN.
I suggest that we should unify the 尤 and 冘 components (with my preferred JP form where 丿 and 乚 touches) for all regions whenever possible, saving a bit of glyph space. There's nothing that says the 丿 and 乚 should not touch for CN/TW/HK locales. This is for Serif, the Sans version is here to avoid confusion.
Here are the characters to review: 冘抌帎沈忱妉枕眈衴耽紞酖躭訦鈂馾黆魫黕邥瓭鸩鴆髧沊醓 莐霃萙 尢尤优扰犹沋忧肬蚘紌訧鱿魷就駀疣嵆鑙諬嵇稽 莸就僦噈憱殧蹴鹫鷲蹵
The v1 reference is from a Source Han Serif fork called GenYoMincho (源樣明體 TW version) as I cannot install v1 and v2 at the same time. Glyphs are largely the same as v1 Serif, especially those which are removed v1 JP glyphs.
LEGEND Green - the v1 glyph can be restored to replace all locales. Blue - the v1 glyph can be restored to replace only the JP/KR/CN locales. Purple - the v1 glyph cannot be restored whatsoever (has traditional print forms unsuitable for CN/TW/HK locales). Red - the glyphs to be replaced by the v1 JP glyphs. Orange - the glyphs to be adjusted. Yellow - remap the TW form to the HK form. Magenta/Pink - Replace with v2 JP/KR forms and remove existing glyph. Cyan - Replace with v2 JP/KR forms. Light green - replace with HK form and adjust glyph, then remove the CN glyph. White - no change needed.
As for 黕 (marked dark grey), special case here: Rename the CN glyph to the JP glyph and adjust the 冘 portion such that it matches the JP aesthetics, then the old JP glyph can be renamed to TW/HK or just simply delete it in favour of the v1 TW glyph. My quote from earlier:
For 尤, I did put the character through my font list and it appears that maybe it should be treated separately for the CN region, but how the 丿 and 乚 strokes are applied is still inconsistent, especially between Sans and Serif. I probably suggest we review first and whether conforming all these characters containing 尤 to JP forms is acceptable for the CN region, and please comment with concrete evidence to prove otherwise.
