This feature makes all variations of a selected character accessible. 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. Since many-to-one substitutions are not covered, ligatures would not appear in this table unless they were variant forms of another ligature.

This feature turns capital characters into small capitals. It is generally used for words which would otherwise be set in all caps, such as acronyms, but which are desired in small-cap form to avoid disrupting the flow of text.

Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph. This feature covers those ligatures which may be used for special effect, at the user's preference.

Replaces selected figures which follow a slash with denominator figures.

Replaces figures separated by a slash with 'common' (diagonal) fractions.

Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph, e.g. 'fi', 'fl'. This feature is enabled by default and cannot currently be disabled.

Replaces selected figures which precede a slash with numerator figures, and replaces the typographic slash with the fraction slash.

Replaces default alphabetic glyphs with the corresponding ordinal forms for use after figures.

Gives the user access to ornament glyphs (e.g. fleurons, dingbats and border elements), either by replacing the bullet character with a selection from the full set of available ornaments, or replacing specific "lower ASCII" characters with ornaments assigned to them.

Replaces the default forms with stylistic alternates. Note that there may be more than one stylistic alternate for a given character.

This feature turns lowercase characters into small capitals. Forms related to small capitals, such as oldstyle figures, may be included.

Stylistic alternatives grouped as sets.

Replaces default character glyphs with corresponding swash glyphs. Note that there may be more than one swash alternate for a given character.

This feature replaces the default glyphs with corresponding forms designed specifically for titling. These may be all-capital and/or larger on the body, and adjusted for viewing at larger sizes.

Some fonts contain both a default form of zero, and an alternative form which uses a diagonal slash through the counter. Especially in condensed designs, it can be difficult to distinguish between 0 and O (zero and capital O) in any situation where capitals and lining figures may be arbitrarily mixed. This feature allows the user to change from the default 0 to a slashed form.
