throwing an error if the data is invalid;
utf8_valid
tests whether character data is valid
according to its declared encoding;
utf8_normalize
converts text to Unicode composed
normal form (NFC), optionally applying case-folding and compatibility
maps;
utf8_encode
encodes a character string, escaping all
control characters, so that it can be safely printed to the screen;

to a specified character width limit or by left, right, or center
justifying;
utf8_print
prints UTF-8 character data to the screen;
utf8_width

strings (many emoji and East Asian characters are twice as wide as other
characters);

the output connections capabilities.
