The purpose of this document is to define and describe the Adobe-Manga1-0 character collection, which enumerates 18,032 glyphs, and whose designation is derived from the following three /CIDSystemInfo dictionary entries:
- /Registry (Adobe)
- /Ordering (Manga1)
- /Supplement 0
CIDFont resources that reference this character collection must include a /CIDSystemInfo dictionary that matches the /Registry and /Ordering strings shown above.
This document is designed for font developers, for the purpose of developing OpenType/CFF Japanese fonts meant for use in manga. It is also useful for application developers and end users who need to know more about the glyphs in this character collection. This document expects that its readers are familiar with the CID-keyed font file format, which is described in Adobe Technical Note #5014, entitled Adobe CMap and CIDFont Files Specification.
A character collection contains the glyphs that are required to develop font products for a specific language, script, or market. Specific encodings are defined through the use of CMap resources that are instantiated as files, and generally reference a subset of the character collection.
The character collection that results from each Supplement includes the glyphs associated with all earlier Supplements.
The Adobe-Manga1-0 character collection enumerates 18,032 glyphs, specifically CIDs 0 through 18031. Adobe-Manga1-0 is based on a subset of Source Han Sans JP 2.004 with additional manga-specific glyphs. The additional glyphs are a mix of both Sans and Serif styles. The following table summarizes, and also provides the pages on which their glyphs are shown in the Adobe-Manga1-0.pdf file:
| Supplement | Additional CIDs | CID Range | Total CIDs | Date of Establishment | Pages |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | 18,032 | 0-18031 | 18,032 | 2023 | 1–37 |
Each CID (Character ID) in a character collection is associated with a glyph in which a set of character shape variations is abstracted. Specific shapes included in the set are dependent on the typeface style and possibly other factors. Glyphs for all CIDs are illustrated in this document, providing a specific example or instance of the correspondence between a CID and its glyph. Font developers should design glyphs for each CID of the character collection, and may use this document as a reference when proofing or otherwise validating CIDFont resources.
The following sections detail the history and contents of each Supplement of the Adobe-Manga1-0 character collection.
Supplement 0, which enumerates 18,032 glyphs, specifically CIDs 0 through 18031, was designed to be used in Japanese manga production.
The following sections detail special glyphs and other notes that are of interest to font developers. Several glyph classes are complex, and deserve some amount of explanation and clarification.
Adobe-Mang1-0 specifies a set of dakuten and handakuten precomposed glyphs:

The aj17-kanji.txt datafile from [Adobe-Japan1]((https://github.com/adobe-type-tools/Adobe-Japan1) provides detailed information for each of the 14,664 kanji included in Adobe-Japan1-7.
Adobe-Manga1-0 includes glyphs that are suitable for typesetting ruby (aka furigana), and the vast majority of the glyphs are for kana, though glyphs for some symbols are also included. Although these ruby glyphs are unencoded, they can be used by applications that support the OpenType 'ruby' (Ruby Notation Forms) GSUB feature. The following table details the CID ranges for the ruby glyphs in Supplement 0:
| Supplement | CID Ranges |
|---|---|
| 0 | 1595-1834, 1934-1983 |
This section was copied from Adobe-Japan1 and edited to reflect Adobe-Manga1-0 CIDs. For historical reasons and for JIS90-compliance, the following three Supplement 0 kanji glyph pairs represent genuine duplicate glyphs, and their JIS83 (aka JIS X 0208-1983) forms in Supplement 4 are shown for the sake of comparison:
| Primary Glyph | Duplicate Glyph | AJ17 Primary Glyph | AJ17 Duplicate Glyph | JIS83 Form |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3590—匕󠄀 | 16651—匕󠄁 | 4301—匕󠄀 | 7983—匕󠄁 | 13523—𠤎󠄀 |
| 4027—喩󠄀 | 16685—喩󠄁 | 4411—喩󠄀 | 7984—喩󠄁 | 13526—喩󠄂 |
| 8015—渣󠄀 | 16981—渣󠄁 | 5459—渣󠄀 | 7994—渣󠄁 | 13558—渣󠄂 |
For the purposes of full compliance and character collection integrity, the duplicate glyphs shown above shall be maintained.
The CMap resources associated with the Adobe-Manga1-0 character collection, along with more complete descriptions and the cid2code.txt datafile that provides additional details for font developers, are available as part of the open source CMap Resources project.
The Ideographic Variation Sequences (IVSes) that are specified in the Adobe-Manga1_sequences.txt datafile are registered by The Unicode Consortium in the IVD (Ideographic Variation Database) per UTS #37 (Unicode Ideographic Variation Database). This datafile also includes a small number of Standardized Variation Sequences.
Representative glyphs for CIDs 0 through 18031 are provided in the Adobe-Manga1-0.pdf file that is included in this project, with 500 glyphs shown per page. The typeface used to exemplify each glyph is Ten Mincho Antique Regular (aka TenMinchoAntique-Regular or 貂明朝アンチック Regular), designed by Adobe. The specific font instance is Version 1.011.
