Fullwidth Won Sign Letter Meaning
￦ is the Fullwidth Won Sign, represented by Unicode code point U+FFE6 (HTML entity ￦). As the name suggests, it’s designed for fullwidth text layouts, where characters occupy the typical width used in CJK (Chinese/Japanese/Korean) contexts. Visually, it functions as a won currency sign, similar in purpose to other won-related symbols, but with fullwidth styling. Use it when you need consistent character alignment in monospaced or fixed-width designs, legacy East Asian encodings, or user interfaces that expect fullwidth currency glyphs. In most plain text systems, it should display as a currency symbol rather than a letter.
Common uses
- •Showing Korean won pricing in fullwidth UI layouts
- •Aligning currency columns in monospaced or fixed-width text (CJK-friendly styling)
- •Using in product labels or receipts where fullwidth characters are expected
- •Rendering legacy or East Asian formatted text strings consistently
- •Designing posters, banners, or social graphics that use fullwidth character sets
