Many of characters in the CJK Compatibility Ideographs Supplement block
are quite common Chinese characters, or variants thereof. You could try
and build Chinese sentences with these characters.

> The Simsun-ExtB and MingLiU-ExtB fonts are meant to complement the Simsun and MingLiU fonts: the combined glyph count exceeds the number of glyphs that can be added in a single OpenType font, and so the “ExtB” fonts are used to contain all of the Plane 2 characters that are supported. For example, the Simsun font supports 28738 BMP characters, and no plane 2 characters, while Simsun-ExtB supports the Basic Latin block from the BMP plus 47,293 plane 2 characters. The combined glyph count exceeds 64K, so can’t go into a single font.
