The fonts at the bottom of the first page (wp010-05.ttf) and the top of the second page (wp[123]10-05.ttf etc.) have zhuyin (aka bopomofo) phonetic symbols [1] to the right of each character. These are common in Taiwan, whereas pinyin is used in the mainland. jamesdutc also used them in the comment above; e.g., ㄐ一ˇㄩˇ = jǐ yǔ.
