U+FA15 belongs to CJK Compatibility Ideographs and is an alias to U+51DE U+FE00. However, Adobe-Japan1 wrongly uses CID+20307 (51DE E0101) for this character:

Actually, CID+8542 (51DE E0104) is more similar to this character:

Therefore, AJ1's CMap and Sequence file should be fixed.

Seemingly, many other fonts also wrongly use CID+20307-like character for U+FA15. The following are examples for correct and wrong fonts. Correct: Meiryo, JhengHei, MingLiu, HG Mincho B, HG Gothic M Wrong: MS Gothic/Mincho, Yu Gothic/Mincho, IPAex Gothic/Mincho, Source Han Sans/Serif, HG Mincho E, HG Gothic E

https://glyphwiki.org/wiki/Talk:aj1-20307 According to this page, this may be a fault of Unicode. Both CID+20307 and CID+8542 are appropriate as U+FA15.
