Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set (HKSCS)




Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set-2004 (HKSCS-2004)


Introduction

The HKSCS-2004 is an updated version of the Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set-2001 (HKSCS-2001) published in December 2001. It includes 4,941 characters of which 123 are newly added. The HKSCS-2004 is aligned technically with the ISO/IEC 10646:2003 and its Amendment 1 published in April 2004 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

There are two encoding schemes of HKSCS-2004, same as the HKSCS-2001. One encoding scheme is for the Big-5 coding standard and the other is for the ISO 10646 standard.
