Description Nicolas Mailhot 2006-09-16 14:13:40 UTC
Complete coverage of the keyboard symbols defined in ISO/IEC 9995-7 would be
very nice (in Sans and Mono)

Comment 1 John Karp 2007-02-28 10:41:51 UTC
The link previously given has broken. Updated link:

http://www.msg.gouv.qc.ca/fr/publications/enligne/standard/ISO_9995-7.pdf

Corresponding unicode characters:
002b, 002d, 00d7, 00f7
2139, 2190-2390, 21e4-21e5, 21e7-21e8, 219e-21a1, 21eb-21f3
232b, 237d, 2380-238c, 2396-239a, 23ce
2423, 2425

I couldn't find 'line up/down', 'backspace', 'partial line up/down', 'partial space left/right', or 'set/release margin left/right' in Unicode.
Comment 2 Nicolas Mailhot 2007-03-01 00:31:26 UTC
Thanks for looking at it nevertheless.
I guess we should ask one of our unicode.org contacts what the codepoints are. Since it's an ISO standard I'd be real surprised if there was none
Comment 3 John Karp 2007-03-08 14:14:36 UTC
Yes, could you ask?

In the meantime, I'll treat this as "cover all Unicode 5.0 characters mentioned in ISO/IEC 9995-7".
