Attributions and terms for webfonts used on character set chart pages

Nishiki-teki

Used for Private Use Area and for some SVG-rationalised combining sequences in some columns of Korean or Japanese set tables.

TW Fonts

Used for Supplementary Private Use Area in Traditional Chinese set tables.

TW-Sung-Plus and TW-Kai-Plus version 11409.01, from CNS11643中文標準交換碼全字庫. “© 2025 Ministry of Digital Affairs. You can use any of the following terms as needed. 1. Open Government Data License, version 1.0 (https://data.gov.tw/en/license). 2. the SIL Open Font License, version 1.1. (https://scripts.sil.org/OFL)”

That package is also the source of the “GOV-TW” data. I’m using TW-Sung-Plus as an embedded WOFF webfont if this works on your end. Note that Debian has a mirror of just the fonts.

These fonts cover only Supplementary Private Use Area A (SPUA), ASCII, and characters used in their localised font names. Fonts covering the BMP and SIP are also provided in the full package but, since they are standard Unicode assignments rather than private use, other fonts for those assignments exist.

BabelStone Han PUA

Quivira

I’m using Alexander Lange’s Quivira as a webfont to provide improved symbol character support compared to what a given (possibly mobile) device might ship with. The author writes the following on the font’s home page:

Therefore, to not block further advancement, Quivira is from now on (2019) in the Public Domain, so that others can extend it, alter it, or use the existing characters for own, even more comprehensive fonts.

Hanazono Mincho B

For the Supplementary Ideographic Plane, I’m using Hanazono Mincho B (licence) as a WOFF2 webfont here, although not at the top of the stack.

Last Resort

I’m using Last Resort at the end of the font stack for Private Use Area characters to prevent them displaying with other PUA fonts in case of, say, use of a locally available earlier version of a referenced PUA font.
