PLEASE NOTE!!
This month's meeting will be held at Adobe Systems in the West Tower,
which is the building that is the closest to Highway 87, and at 345
Park Avenue, San Jose 95110. Attendees should tell the parking
attendant that they're Ken Lunde's guest, attending his IMUG talk,
which means you won't need to pay $5 for parking. The receptionist is
on the second floor.
The Adobe-Japan1-6 character collection represents the sixth
supplement to the Japanese glyph collection developed by Adobe
Systems, which is used by every major Japanese type foundry. This
glyph collection enumerates 23,058 glyphs, and supports all current
JIS standards. Fascinating details of the development of its key
supplements will be conveyed during this presentation.
Ken Lunde is a Senior Computer Scientist in CJKV Type Development at
Adobe Systems. He has worked for Adobe since 1991. He received a PhD
degree from The University of Wisconsin - Madison in 1994, and has
authored two books for O'Reilly, "Understanding Japanese Information
Processing" in 1993, and "CJKV Information Processing" in 1999.
