Description

The Unicode character U+0092, also known as the Form Feed (FF) character, is a non-printing control character primarily used for signaling the end of a line in digital text. Its hexadecimal value is EF. The FF character plays an essential role in maintaining proper document formatting and layout when printing by ensuring a smooth transition between different sections of printed materials. Although it does not have any cultural or linguistic significance, the Form Feed character holds importance in technical contexts for maintaining the correct presentation of digital text across various output devices. It belongs to the Latin-1 Supplement Unicode block, which is a collection of 256 characters (128 to 255) serving various text formatting and typography purposes. The Latin-1 Supplement block extends the basic Latin character set to accommodate additional symbols essential for proper formatting and presentation of written content. This range of characters can be utilized across a wide range of applications, from professional documents to creative writing, ensuring clear communication and an aesthetically pleasing visual experience for readers.

How to type the ’ symbol on Windows

Hold Alt and type 0146 on the numpad. Or use Character Map.

  1. Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout

    The character ’ has the Unicode code point U+0092. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of 0x0080 to 0x07ff.

    Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format: 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx
    Where the x are the payload bits.

    UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range
    Codepoint RangeBytesBit patternPayload length
    U+0000 - U+007F10xxxxxxx7 bits
    U+0080 - U+07FF2110xxxxx 10xxxxxx11 bits
    U+0800 - U+FFFF31110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx16 bits
    U+10000 - U+10FFFF411110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx21 bits
  2. Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:

    Convert the hexadecimal code point U+0092 to binary: 10010010. Those are the payload bits.

  3. Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:

    Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
    11000010 10010010
