The Unicode-encoded data file below was created from the electronic version of DeFrancis' ABC Dictionary
in Wenlin 2.x. Only one font is used for this webpage, including intermix of traditional and simplified
characters, as well as Pinyin with tone diacritics (including the caron
(hachek) for Tone 3 over vowels). The SimSun font provides a better display (and printing) of roman letters
than does MS Song, for example, for this same page, while Bitstream's Cyberbit misses quite a few of the Chinese
characters, in addition to displaying (and printing) vowels containing the hachek for Tone 3 differently from
vowels with one of the other tone diacritic marks. (Test on your own other Chinese Unicode fonts and external
decoders. Or test with lists containing more obscure Chinese characters.)
This webpage is best viewed with font preference for Netscape 4.x set as follows:
