CJK Compatibility Ideograph 2F85D

94/542

多 is a compatibility code for a Taiwan-source character in CNS 11643-1992, Taiwan’s multi-plane standard for written Chinese; the supplement was designed to let those source entries convert to Unicode and back. Its canonical equivalent is 多 (“many”), so normalization can erase the original code point. Unicode 17.0 (2025) encoded the Taiwan source separately as 𡖇 .

Why does 多 show as a box on some devices?

Not every system ships a font for the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
