Alphabetic Presentation Forms (PDF), including forms used in standard
Yiddish orthography. Note 1: these
forms are generally to be used for compatibility; modern applications
should use composition of characters from the Hebrew code block.
Note 2: this now includes U+FB1D, Hebrew Letter Yod with Hiriq,
which was added as part of Unicode 3.0, and which represents a
character combination used in Yiddish. Note 3: there now exists
an important Corrigendum
#2: Yod with Hiriq Normalization, effective for Unicode 3.1,
basically to deal the character U+FB1D HEBREW LETTER YOD WITH HIRIQ
being mistakenly omitted from the so-called "Composition Exclusions
table", i.e., such that it was not handled the same as all the other
precomposed Hebrew characters.
