Editing Unicode (section)

=== Versions ===
The Unicode Consortium together with the ISO have developed a shared [[character encoding|repertoire]] following the initial publication of ''The Unicode Standard'': Unicode and the ISO's [[Universal Coded Character Set]] (UCS) use identical character names and code points. However, the Unicode versions do differ from their ISO equivalents in two significant ways.

While the UCS is a simple character map, Unicode specifies the rules, algorithms, and properties necessary to achieve interoperability between different platforms and languages. Thus, ''The Unicode Standard'' includes more information, covering in-depth topics such as bitwise encoding, [[Unicode collation algorithm|collation]], and rendering. It also provides a comprehensive catalog of character properties, including those needed for supporting [[bidirectional text]], as well as visual charts and reference data sets to aid implementers. Previously, ''The Unicode Standard'' was sold as a print volume containing the complete core specification, standard annexes,{{refn|group="note"|1="A Unicode Standard Annex (UAX) forms an integral part of ''The Unicode Standard'', but is published as a separate document."[https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr31/tr31-5.html]}} and code charts. However, version 5.0, published in 2006, was the last version printed this way. Starting with version 5.2, only the core specification, published as a print-on-demand paperback, may be purchased.<ref name="version6.1PoD">{{Cite web |title=Unicode 6.1 Paperback Available |url=https://www.unicode.org/mail-arch/unicode-ml/y2012-m05/0240.html |access-date=30 May 2012 |website=announcements_at_unicode.org}}</ref> The full text, on the other hand, is published as a free PDF on the Unicode website.

A practical reason for this publication method highlights the second significant difference between the UCS and Unicode—the frequency with which updated versions are released and new characters added. ''The Unicode Standard'' has regularly released annual expanded versions, occasionally with more than one version released in a calendar year and with rare cases where the scheduled release had to be postponed. For instance, in April 2020, a month after version 13.0 was published, the Unicode Consortium announced they had changed the intended release date for version 14.0, pushing it back six months to September 2021 due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]].

Unicode 16.0, the latest version, was released on 10 September 2024. It added  5,185 characters and seven new scripts: [[Garay alphabet|Garay]], [[Khema script|Gurung Khema]], [[Kirat Rai]], [[Ol Onal]], [[Sunuwar alphabet|Sunuwar]], [[Todhri alphabet|Todhri]], and [[Tigalari script|Tulu-Tigalari]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Unicode 16.0.0 |url=https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode16.0.0/|access-date=13 September 2024 |website=Unicode}}</ref>

Thus far, the following versions of ''The Unicode Standard'' have been published. Update versions, which do not include any changes to character repertoire, are signified by the third number (e.g., "version 4.0.1") and are omitted in the table below.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Enumerated Versions of The Unicode Standard |url=https://www.unicode.org/versions/enumeratedversions.html |access-date=21 June 2016}}</ref>
