May also replace lowercase characters with alphabetic inferiors.
The glyph for ffl replaces the sequence of glyphs f f l.įunction: Replaces lining or oldstyle figures with inferior figures (smaller glyphs which sit lower than the standard baseline, primarily for chemical or mathematical notation). This feature covers the ligatures which the designer/manufacturer judges should be used in normal conditions. The user enters 3/4 in a recipe and gets the threequarters fraction.įunction: Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. In the string 11/17 selected by the user, the application turns the 17 into denominators when the user applies the fraction feature.įunction: Replaces figures separated by a slash with 'common' (diagonal) fractions. A user inputs the P in Poetica, and is presented with a choice of the four standard capital forms, the eight swash capital forms, the initial capital form and the small capital form.įunction: Replaces selected figures which follow a slash with denominator figures. Since many-to-one substitutions are not covered, ligatures would not appear in this table unless they were variant forms of another ligature.
This serves several purposes: An application may not support the feature by which the desired glyph would normally be accessed the user may need a glyph outside the context supported by the normal substitution, or the user may not know what feature produces the desired glyph. Function: This feature makes all variations of a selected character accessible.
