Difference list of Unicode vs. IPA

© 1999.5.14, 2001.5.6 TAKAHSHI Makoto

Here are three lists of characters that are in IPA Extension, Spacing Modifier Letters, and Combining Diacritical Marks of Unicode and did not found in the International Phonetic Association and IPA font of The Summer Institute of Linguistic (SIL). Here is also a list of characters that are found in IPA and did not found in Unicode. Four lists are as follows.

Correspondence is from attached document of Henry Rogers IPAPhon. And correspondence of letters of Spacing Modifier Letters and Combining Diacritical Marks is estimated by glyphs of Unicode 4.1 Character Chart Index(c) of Unicode Consortium(u). There is no name for character in IPA page. So names of characters are from attached document of SIL fonts and IPAPhon.
