General Index. Book News Annotation:The Unicode Standard defines a consistent way of encoding
multilingual text necessary for easy electronic exchange of text data
and is the default encoding of HTML and XML on the Web. Treating all
characters (textual, ideographic, and symbolic) equivalently, it
requires no control codes or escape sequences. It is also conformant
with international standard ISO/IEC 10646. Version 4.0 has added Old
Italic, Gothic, Deseret, Shavian, Cypriot, Ugaritic, Tai Le, and
other scripts and has doubled the number of Han ideographs. This text
explains the use of the standard and provides code charts for 96,248
common characters. The CD-ROM contains the entire Unicode Character
database, as well as the text of the Unicode Standard Annexes.
Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Synopsis:A comprehensive guide to the Unicode programming standard, created and authorized by the Unicode Consortium. The accompanying CD-ROM contains the entire Unicode Character Database, plus other materials. Synopsis:The authoritative guide to universal character encoding The official way to implement ISO/IEC 10646 The key to advancing global interoperability in information technology products Unicode 4.0The Unicode Standard The Unicode Standard provides a unique code number for every character in electronic text, no matter what the platform, no matter what the application, no matter what the language. It is required for XML and is at the core of modern software products. Unicode 4.0 contains 96,248 characters covering languages of the world. The Unicode Standard contains extensive descriptions of each writing system, as well as definitions of character properties and detailed conformance requirements. It is the complete and definitive user's guide for novices and experts alike. This edition, The Unicode Standard, Version 4.0 adds 47,188 new characters for minority and historic scripts, several sets of symbols, and a very large collection of additional CJK ideographs. It provides updated specifications covering structure, conformance, character behavior and semantics, as well as implementation guidelines, detailed discussions of writing systems, comprehensive charts, and an extensive glossary. The accompanying CD-ROM includes the text of all the Unicode Standard Annexes and the entire Unicode Character Database. 0321185781B07232003 About the AuthorThe Unicode Consortium is a non-profit organization founded to develop, extend, and promote the use of the Unicode Standard. The membership of the Consortium represents a broad spectrum of corporations and organizations in the computer and information processing industry. The Unicode Consortium actively cooperates with many of the leading standards development organizations, including ISO/IEC JTC1, W3C, IETF, and ECMA. 0321185781AB07232003 Table of ContentsAcknowledgments.
