BDFs using character set JISX0208.1990 open incorrectly mapped #2

milkjf-JISX0208-1990.zip

BitsNPicas seems to get all if not most of the characters but they end up pushed back to Letterlike Symbols and from there onward they're dispersed.

If I understand this correctly this page should detail how JISX0208.1990 translates to Unicode.

After looking through the JAR it looks like this page is what you'd find more useful.

JIS0208-Edit.TXT

And here's that last file without the SJIS column so it's only JIS0208 and Unicode which seems to better match the other files.

Can you point me to a BDF file using JIS X 0208 encoding?

The ZIP up top should have the three I was working with at the time, and so there's a larger selection to work with here's M+ Bitmap Fonts which uses JISX0208.1990 for the BDFs in the fonts_j directory of the mplus_bitmap_fonts-2.2.4.tar.gz download. The two zips with 1990 in their name in this directory are JISX0208.1990.
