Hi,

I'm not sure that this is the right package to report the bug against,
and I am not really sure that my assessment of the problem is correct,
but I do have the strong suspicion that I am. Anyway, when I write the
character 萍, I got the 'wrong' glyph in Anki and eg. terminator, but
got the right glyph inside Chromium. In both cases, fcitx is showing the
wrong glyph in the preview window. I have attached two screenshots
showing the two glyphs. The 'right' glyph seems to be the one which is
contained in the image that also contains the pronounciation, which
happens to be the bigger image.


Cheers,
Toni

I can certainly repro this, at full-size and in downscaled fonts, cf.
  big.png   which is character "Cc6bc"    from cc48s.bdf
  small.png which is character ""$0x463c" from guob16.bdf
correspond to the glyph at hand
(U+840D CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-840D).

Both clearly include a stem in the bit on the left
(forgive my nomenclatural deficiencies).

Actually, per some of the variants on wiktionary,
this looks like a perfectly acceptable rendering?
so I don't really see what the issue is here.

It's not like the flat one in your Selection_517.png,
but it's /almost/ like the calligraphic one in Selection_518.png,
and it matches the han-nom variant in
