Hi,

I found a proposal for the character /Arabic Jazm Urdu/ here :
http://std.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc2/WG2/docs/n2413-4.pdf

Ishida's page on Urdu ( http://people.w3.org/rishida/scripts/urdu/ ) recommends
that, the /Jazm/ be handled a font variant of the Arabic /Sukun/.

(The other character *not* recommended by Ishida, but supposedly having the
same form is U+06E1. Although, the shape seems to be different than that of
the /Jazm/ in Govt. of Pakisan's proposal )

Why was this character not encoded ?

Is it recommended by the Unicode that the Urdu /Jazm/ be handled as a glyph
variant of the Arabic /Sukun/. ?

V
