Reflection

This codes should be edited to reflect Xerox Character Code Standard (XNIS 058405) code book, thus will be it purges this page. Rowan03 (talk) 19:16, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, another user will be purge page later, as stated above. Rowan03 (talk) 18:43, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unicode mismatches

Maybe I missed it but I can't find a mapping table or image for XCCS in the references. I've fixed some of the mismatches between the hex Unicode code point and the character displayed but without a good reference I can't figure out these:

Xerox character, hex Unicode code point vs character displayed
0x2131 U+205E ⁞ VERTICAL FOUR DOTS vs U+203E ‾ OVERLINE

0xEF6F U+2238 ∸ DOT MINUS vs U+2235 ∵ BECAUSE (U+2268 is also used for 0x2235)

Additionally, these Xerox characters are currently mapped to Unicode letters. I think they should be mapped to similar looking symbols but I'm not sure:

0x0027 U+02BC ʼ MODIFIER LETTER APOSTROPHE
0x00C1 U+02CB ˋ MODIFIER LETTER GRAVE ACCENT
0x00C2 U+02CA ˊ MODIFIER LETTER ACUTE ACCENT
0x00C3 U+02C6 ˆ MODIFIER LETTER CIRCUMFLEX ACCENT
0x00CC U+02CD ˍ MODIFIER LETTER LOW MACRON
0x00CF U+02C7 ˇ CARON

Hopefully these mismatches can be resolved. DRMcCreedy (talk) 21:33, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
