Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Com-
mission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of
ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees estab-
lished by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC tech-
nical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information
technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC1.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication
as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75% of the national bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of ISO/IEC 10646 may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This International Standard was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC1, Information tech-
nology, Subcommittee SC 2, Coded Character sets.
Amendment 2 to ISO/IEC 10646:2012 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC1, Infor-
mation technology, Subcommittee SC 2, Coded character sets.

Kikakui, and other characters
Page 22, Sub-clause 16.3 Format characters
Insert the following entry in the list of format characters:
061C ARABIC LETTER MARK
2066 LEFT-TO-RIGHT ISOLATE
2067 RIGHT-TO-LEFT ISOLATE
2068 FIRST STRONG ISOLATE
2069 POP DIRECTIONAL ISOLATE

Page 23, Sub-clause 16.5 Variation selectors and variation sequences
Replace the first paragraph with the following new paragraph:
Variation selectors are a specific class of combining characters immediately following a base character for
which there is no canonical mapping and no equivalent composite sequence. The purpose is to indicate a
specific variant form of graphic symbol for that base character. The character sequence consisting of such
base character followed by a variation selector is called a variation sequence.
Replace the first note with the following new note:
NOTE 1 – The variation selector only selects a specific appearance among those acceptable for an already encoded charac-
ter. It is not intended as a general code extension mechanism.
Remove the first sentence of the third paragraph (starting with ‘No variation sequences using characters’).
Replace the text of the sub-clause after Note 2 (starting with ‘The following list provides a description’) with the
following text:
The content linked to is a plain text file, using ISO/IEC 646-IRV characters with LINE FEED as end of line mark
that specifies Standardized Variations Sequences. Each line in the text file contains the following information
organized in two or three fields:
st
 1 field: Variation sequence expressed as a UCS Sequence Identifier (using a modified syntax for
the USI, omitting commas and angle brackets),
nd
 2 field: Description of the variation sequence ,
rd
 3 field (optional): Shaping environments where the variation sequence applies. The possible values
are: isolate, initial, medial, final.
The fields are delimited by a SEMICOLON (';') followed optionally by zero or more SPACE characters. The last
field may be followed by a comment starting with a NUMBER SIGN ('#') describing the name of the base char-
acter. Comment lines, starting with a NUMBER SIGN ('#') are informational only. Comment lines and blank lines

in the text file should be ignored by any automatic process which parses the data file to extract the normative
list of Standardized Variants.
Provide a new reference file with format as specified above containing the standardized variations sequences
defined in this International Standard using the lists part of the previous sub-clause 16.5, augmented with the
following list:

In addition, 1002 new entries corresponding to standardized variation sequences for CJK compatibility ideo-
graphs are added using the following format:
xxxx yyyy; CJK COMPATIBILITY IDEOGRAPH-zzzz;
(xxxx is the code point of the base character and represents the CJK Unified Ideograph associated through
decomposition mapping with the CJK Compatibility Ideograph defined itself by the code point zzzz, yyyy is the
variation selector code point and can be FE00, FE01, or FE02 in this context. The 1002 entries corresponding
to the CJK Compatibility Ideographs specified between F900-FA6D, FA70-FAD9, and 2F800-2FA1D, excluding
the 12 CJK Unified Ideographs: FA0E-FA0F, FA11, FA13-FA14, FA1F, FA21, FA23-FA24, FA27-FA29). For
example, the CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-7DF4 is used as base for 3 entries associated with CJK
COMPATIBILITY IDEOGRAPH F966, FA57, and FAB0:
7DF4 FE00; CJK COMPATIBILITY IDEOGRAPH-F996;
7DF4 FE01; CJK COMPATIBILITY IDEOGRAPH-FA57;
7DF4 FE02; CJK COMPATIBILITY IDEOGRAPH-FAB0;

NOTE 3 – The content is also available as a separate viewable file in the same directory as this document. The file is named:
“UCSVariants.txt”. These sequences are also described as StandardizedVariants.html in the Unicode character database
(http://www.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/StandardizedVariants.html).
.
The Standardized Variations Sequences contain sequences associated with allowed base characters from the
following categories:
 Mathematical symbols
NOTE 4 – The VARIATION SELECTOR-1 (FE00) is the only variation selector used with mathematical symbols.
 Mongolian characters. Only some presentation forms of the base Mongolian characters used with the
Mongolian free variation selectors produce variant appearances.
NOTE 5 – The Mongolian characters have various presentation forms depending on their position in a code unit sequence.
These presentations forms are called isolate, initial, medial and final.
 Phags-pa characters. These variation sequences do not select fixed visual representation; rather, they
select a representation that is reversed from the normal form predicted by the preceding character.
 Pictographic symbols. The range of presentations may include a traditional black and white text style,
using FE0E VARIATION SELECTOR-15, or an ‘emoji’ style, using FE0F VARIATION SELECTOR-16,
whose presentation often involves color/grayscale and/or animation.
NOTE 6 – Standardized variations sequences involving the characters 0023 NUMBER SIGN and the range 0030-0039
(DIGIT ZERO to DIGIT NINE) are intended for use with 20E3 COMBINING ENCLOSING KEYCAP, such as in:
<0023, FE0E, 20E3> NUMBER SIGN inside a COMBINING ENCLOSING KEYCAP in text style.
 CJK Unified Ideographs. Each of these variation sequences corresponds to a CJK compatibility ideo-
graph. Its specified appearance is that of the corresponding CJK compatibility ideograph.
NOTE 7 – All normalization forms replace CJK compatibility ideographs with the corresponding CJK unified ideographs,
but leave the variation sequences unchanged (see Clause 21). In contexts where normalization forms are used and the
distinction between the CJK compatibility ideographs and CJK unified ideographs is desired, the usage of variation se-
quences is a mechanism to maintain that distinction. No equivalence between these variation sequences and the corre-
sponding compatibility ideographs is defined. Conversion considerations are out of scope of this International Standard.

Page 26, Clause 18, Compatibility characters
Add the following note:
NOTE 3 – Because compatibility ideographs are not preserved through any normalization forms, use of standardized vari-
ation sequences for CJK Unified Ideographs (see 16.5) may be preferred in contexts where normalization forms are used
and the distinction between CJK compatibility ideographs and the corresponding CJK Unified ideographs needs to be
maintained. In context where compatibility ideographs should be preserved, normalization forms cannot be used.
Page 29, Clause 21, Normalization forms
Add the following note:
NOTE 4 – In all four normalization forms, CJK Compatibility Ideographs are replaced with the corresponding CJK Unified
Ideographs. Normalization, however, doesn't alter variation selectors, and variation sequences are preserved. Because of
this, the use of standardized variation sequences for CJK Unified Ideographs over the CJK Compatibility Ideographs is
preferred in the context of normalization (see 16.5).

Append the following text:
BRAHMI NUMBER JOINER (1107F): This character is used to form ligature between Brahmi numbers
signifying multiplication.
Page 2212, Annex F.1.3 Bidirectional text formatting
Replace the paragraph starting with ‘RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK” with the following text:
ARABIC LETTER MARK (061C): In bidirectional formatting, this character acts like a right-to-left Arabic
character (such as ARABIC LETTER NOON).
RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK (200F): In bidirectional formatting, this character acts like a generic right-to-left
character (such as NKO LETTER A).
At the end of the sub-clause add the following text:
The following format characters, commonly called isolate characters, can be applied to a text segment to
reduce its effect on the bidirectional ordering of its surroundings to that of a neutral character. This is in
contrast to the existing embedding formatting characters (LEFT-TO-RIGHT EMBEDDING, RIGHT-TO-
LEFT EMBEDDING, POP DIRECTIONAL FORMATTING) which have the effect of a strong character on
their surroundings. Otherwise, isolate characters are similar to embedding characters: they declare a
direction for the text inside it, and can be nested inside another isolate or embedding (and vice-versa.
LEFT-TO-RIGHT ISOLATE (2066): This character is used to indicate the start of a left-to-right isolate.
RIGHT-TO-LEFT ISOLATE (2067): This character is used to indicate the start of a right-to-left isolate.
FIRST STRONG ISOLATE (2068): This character is used to indicate the start of a first-strong isolate, i.e.
one whose direction is determined by applying specific Unicode Bidi Algorithm (see 3) paragraph level
rules to the isolate’s content as if it were a separate paragraph.
POP DIRECTIONAL ISOLATE (2069): This character is used to indicate the end of an isolate.
