History & usage: The FULLWIDTH FULL STOP depicts the symbol used to end sentences in fullwidth text. It is a punctuation mark that helps structure writing and convey tone when fullwidth characters are used. Use it to finish sentences in documents or messages that rely on fullwidth typography. It supports alignment in fixed-width text blocks and mixed layouts, especially in East Asian contexts. It also appears in digital interfaces and fonts to preserve a uniform character width and spacing. This punctuation helps with readability and can reflect style and locale differences in how sentences feel. For accessibility, ensure it renders clearly on all platforms and is recognized correctly by screen readers as a period when appropriate.

Copy and input: the quickest method is to copy the character here. You can also insert it by its codepoint U+FF0E in many development tools or editors. Some operating systems provide a character viewer or input palette that lets you search by name or code and insert the glyph into documents.

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
