Examples of fonts including stylistic sets are Zapfino Linotype and Adobe's Poetica. Glyphs in stylistic sets may be designed to harmonise visually, interract in particular ways, or otherwise work together. multiple variants for lowercase letters in a Latin font. The glyph for ct replaces the sequence of glyphs c t, or U+322E (Kanji ligature for "Friday") replaces the sequence U+91D1 U+66DC U+65E5.įunction: In addition to, or instead of, stylistic alternatives of individual glyphs (see 'salt' feature), some fonts may contain sets of stylistic variant glyphs corresponding to portions of the character set, e.g. This feature covers those ligatures which may be used for special effect, at the user's preference. The user applies this feature to text to enable localized Bulgarian forms of Cyrillic letters alternatively, the feature might enable localized Russian forms in a Bulgarian manufactured font in which the Bulgarian forms are the default characters.įunction: Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. This feature enables localized forms of glyphs to be substituted for default forms. In some cases the localized form differs only subtly from the script 'norm', in others the forms are radically distinct. For example, a number of letters in the Bulgarian and Serbian alphabets have forms distinct from their Russian counterparts and from each other. The user enters 3/4 in a recipe and gets the threequarters fraction.įunction: Many scripts used to write multiple languages over wide geographical areas have developed localized variant forms of specific letters, which are used by individual literary communities.
