Kantenji using braille patterns 368, 1368, 3468, or 13468

This listing includes kantenji using Braille pattern dots-256 for all 6349 kanji found in JIS C 6226-1978.

Unlike most kantenji patterns, is distinguished positionally, where it usually indicates a 心 when used finally, but ⽊ or ⺾ when used initially, and any of the above when medial to a kantenji pattern. ⽊ and ⺾ are also indicated by other, unique kantenji cells, but the large number of kanji utilizing these elements necessitates further disambiguating in kantenji patterns, which are limited to three cells apiece.
