The size of character changed in fbox
The source is as in the following
documentclass[a4paper]{ctexart}
begin{document}
noindent
【
setlength{fboxsep}{0pt}
noindent
fbox{【}
end{document}
The output looks like
As you can see, the widths of the same character are different.
I'm using texlive 2018.48691-6 and the file is compiled with the following command
xelatex main.tex
spacing symbols fbox

If you comparex【xandfbox{x【x}you see the width is the same. It looks to me that there is some correction done at the begin of the line, maybe some microtype feature etc.

If I compile withdocumentclass[a4paper,fontset=windows,UTF8]{ctexart}, I get a space preceding the character in both cases. And also if I dofbox{hbox{【}}. Without theUTF8option I get errors.

As far as I can see, the space is added on purpose, in order to make the symbol the same width as other Chinese characters.

Can't tell you why this is the case but I figured out that enclosing it into a mbox first fixes this issue.
% xelatax
documentclass[a4paper]{ctexart}
setlengthfboxsep{0pt}
begin{document}
noindent
【
noindent
fbox{mbox{【}}%
noindent
fbox{【}%
end{document}
Just adding a low-level hbox{..} is also enough. Seems to me that the way fbox boxes its content does something wrong here. If you use the adjustbox package with adjustbox{frame}{【} then it works fine as well.
