    • U+F25B (hook M) was changed
    • U+04BB (Cyrillic lowercase h) was changed
    • U+F134, U+F135 were changed
  • New Characters were added
    • U+F260, U+F261 (bar j) were added
    • U+0334..U+0338 (combining overlays) were added — no smart code was added
    • Fourth eng U+014A variant was added
  • U+F134 and U+F135 are now deprecated and are double-encoded to U+230A and U+230B
  • Fixed tone numbers (reversed)
  • New sort order applied to font (can now view by similar shapes)
    • ViewGlyph — “View” by GlyphID
    • Any application which lets you “View” by GlyphID
  • AAT tables added
  • Graphite tables updated for Graphite 2.0
  • OpenType tables updated (as follows)
    • All Vietnamese style characters now render when the Vietnamese language is set (for The XeTeX typesetting system).
    • Removed requiredFeatureIndex in the featureIndexArray
    • Restore advance width (that Uniscribe removes) for diacritics that attach above right
      • Note: However, this can cause extra spacing in OpenType applications that do not use the Uniscribe rendering engine when these diacritics are used. This problem will continue to be worked on.
