Openglyph – Font-backed typesetting and component-based construction of historic Chinese

The package provides named, font-backed historical Chinese glyphs for XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX. Authors enter ASCII identifiers instead of inserting separate missing-character images. The distribution includes 22,583 GlyphWiki ebag_s forms, their source-program dependency subset, and an optional offline Python/Node component-edit compiler. New forms are built into OpenType fonts with stable project-local private-use addresses and reproducible source records. Ordinary typesetting requires neither shell escape nor a network service. This package is not an OCR system and does not establish scholarly readings or the correctness of a generated glyph.
