Re: [ft-devel] [Patch] CJK autofit/autohint blue zones

[mpsuzuki]

Hi,

Thank you very much for posting interesting idea
and the implementation for proof of concept!!

I really appreciate for your effort.

I will take a look and try to make a list of
frequently used CJK Unified Ideographs used in
Japanese market.

Your message lacks the character encoding - 
I guess it is coded by GBK. If my guessing
is correct... I think the list includes both
of Traditional & Simplified Hanzi. Many are
paired, but some are not paird. For example,
simplified form of "military" (U+519B) is
included, but traditional form (軍, U+8ECD)
is not included.

Yet I've not checked the cross section of
them with popular legacy charsets like GB 2312
and Big5, but please let me ask a question.

If a legacy Big5 font without any simplified
Hanzi is given, this patch works well? Or,
should we maintain another list for Big5?

Also, U+8ECD is included in GB 12345-90,
but not in GB 2312-80. If a legacy GB 2312
font is given, this patch works well?
