Technical features

Unicode version 5.1 added support for many early Cyrillic characters in the Cyrillic Extended-A and B blocks. Support for these is limited, but they should work on a computer system with appropriate fonts installed.

These fonts have at least partial support for the new Cyrillic characters in Unicode 5.1:

• Resources at Obshtezhitie (Dilyana v 2.001, Lazov v 1.00, Menaion Medieval v 2.10)
• Code2000 version 1.17

After Unicode version 5.1, more and more early Cyrillic characters were introduced. The following link can get appropriate fonts have at least partial support for the new Cyrillic characters as in Unicode 9.0 and later:

• Resources at the Slavonic Computing Initiative of Ponomar project, also available on CTAN
• BukyVede version 2.002
• Kliment Std version 4.006
• RomanCyrillic Std version 5.002

Quivira font fully supports -A and -B blocks, but not -C.
