Until 2010 or so, the Unicode glyph U+221A corresponding to the square-root sign (the HTML entity is named radic and has decimal code 8730) was usually rendered with a short built-in vinculum. Examples include upper and lower parts of brackets or integral signs and a square-root sign without a vinculum. Also, the Symbol font provides graphics that are specifically intended as components in the two-dimensional layout of mathematical expressions. Such explicit references are now strongly discouraged for new documents, but they survive in many existing pages on the Internet. The use of the Symbol font in mathematical expressions was part of a W3C recommendation for HTML 4.Īt the time of that original recommendation (December 1997), the only native way to display many mathematical symbols in HTML was a direct use of the "Symbol" font. *encoded as ASCII for older versions of the font Letter Number Punctuation Symbol Other Undefined Font comparison Uppercase The alternatives U+27E8 and U+27E9 (⟨ and ⟩) are now preferred for mathematical use.

For comparison, the fullwidth Latin characters in the Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms block are mapped to their ASCII equivalents using compatibility mapping, not canonical equivalence, and therefore only changed by NFKC and NFKD normalisation.

This equivalence is sometimes considered mistaken, but cannot be changed under the Unicode stability policy. The characters U+2329 and U+232A, however, are canonically equivalent to U+3008 and U+3009, and are therefore changed to the latter under both NFC and NFKC Unicode normalisation. The characters U+3008 and U+3009 are fullwidth punctuation, usually rendered with additional spacing so as to align them within em squares, as appropriate in East Asian typography. Adobe uses code points U+2329 and U+232A (〈 and 〉), whereas Apple uses U+3008 and U+3009 (〈 and 〉). Mapping of the angle bracket characters at 0圎1 and 0xF1 can vary. While both Adobe and Apple agree on assigning characters 0圆6 and 0圆A respectively to Unicode code points U+03C6 (φ, GREEK SMALL LETTER PHI) and U+03D5 (ϕ, GREEK PHI SYMBOL), some versions of the font interchange these two symbols. Lowercase Greek letters appear in italics in many older versions of Symbol. Apple also introduces the Apple logo as PUA code point U+F8FF for character 0xF0, a position not used in the original Adobe font. Character 0x27 (called "suchthat" in the Adobe document) is assigned by Adobe to U+220B (∋, CONTAINS AS MEMBER) but by Apple to U+220D (∍, SMALL CONTAINS AS MEMBER), which more closely resembles the symbol usually used for such that. īeyond the use of Private Use Area code points, Adobe and Apple have a few other minor differences in code point assignments. IBM calls the encoding Code page 1038, although the code page definition predates the addition of the euro sign, and uses 0xA0 for a numeric space character. The table below mostly follows the Apple mapping. A newer mapping table for Apple's version of the font uses more recently introduced Unicode code points instead.

The document describing the mapping to Unicode code points was created before several of the characters were added to Unicode, so the original mapping assigns several of the characters to the Private Use Area (PUA). The font was created by Adobe and has its own character encoding, with the Greek letters arranged according to similar Latin letters ( Chi = C, etc.).
