Yomichan problem

⽕ – Yomichan cannot detect this fire character I copied from Adobe acrobat PDF reader

火 – this is a character for fire I typed in browser. Yomichan can detect it.

Are they different character?

  1. Yes they are different. I pasted them both into [this site](https://babelstone.co.uk/Unicode/whatisit.html) which tells you what the name of the Unicode character you have is. The first one is a radical whereas the second is the actual kanji that the radical is based on.

    I assume your PDF was made with bad OCR if it doesn’t make sense for a radical to exist in the context you took it from.
