  ** The UTF-8/16/7 coding systems don't encode CJK (Far Eastern) characters.
  
! Emacs by default only supports the parts of the Unicode BMP whose code
! points are in the ranges 0000-33ff and e000-ffff.  This excludes: most
! of CJK, Yi and Hangul, as well as everything outside the BMP.
  
  If you read UTF-8 data with code points outside these ranges, the
  characters appear in the buffer as raw bytes of the original UTF-8

  ** The UTF-8/16/7 coding systems don't encode CJK (Far Eastern) characters.
  
! Emacs directly supports the Unicode BMP whose code points are in the
! ranges 0000-33ff and e000-ffff, and indirectly supports the parts of
! CJK characters belonging to these legacy charsets:
! 
!     GB2312, Big5, JISX0208, JISX0212, JISX0213-1, JISX0213-2, KSC5601
! 
! The latter support is done in Utf-Translate-Cjk mode (turned on by
! default).   Which Unicode CJK characters are decoded into which Emacs
! charset is decided by the current language environment.  For instance,
! in Chinese-GB, most of them are decoded into chinese-gb2312.
  
  If you read UTF-8 data with code points outside these ranges, the
  characters appear in the buffer as raw bytes of the original UTF-8

  If you read such characters from UTF-16 or UTF-7 data, they are
  substituted with the Unicode `replacement character', and you lose
  information.
- 
- To edit such UTF data, turn on Utf-Translate-Cjk mode, which makes
- many common CJK characters available for encoding and decoding and can
- be extended by updating the tables it uses.  This also allows you to
- save as UTF buffers containing characters decoded by the chinese-,
- japanese- and korean- coding systems, e.g. cut and pasted from
- elsewhere.
  
  ** Mule-UCS loads very slowly.
