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. The dashes, bracketing characters, guillemet quotes and the like shift up to match the capitals, and oldstyle figures change to lining figures.įunction: Replaces selected figures which follow a slash with denominator figures. The user selects a block of text and applies this feature. Also, lining figures are the same height (or close to it) as capitals, and fit much better with all-capital text. Some characters should be shifted vertically to fit the higher visual center of all-capital or lining text. By default, glyphs in a text face are designed to work with lowercase characters.
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: Shifts various punctuation marks up to a position that works better with all-capital sequences or sets of lining figures also changes oldstyle figures to lining 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.
