OpenType features

Open thlinard opened this issue 6 years ago • 0 comments

Hi Irene,

I think that the OpenType features part could be enriched with advice on the OpenType functions that can be implemented, particularly with regard to your comment on accented capitals.

For example, the Brill fonts use the calt features to disabled accented capitals in all-caps or small caps contexts.

We could therefore imagine a tip on how the functions can be combined to achieve this result:

  • default (accented capitals, with ypogegrammeni)
  • calt (capitals without accentuation, with ypogegrammeni)
  • smcp (accented small capitals, with ypogegrammeni)
  • smcp + calt (small capitals without accentuation, with ypogegrammeni)
  • salt (accented capitals, with prosgegrammeni)
  • salt + calt (capitals without accentuation, with prosgegrammeni)
  • salt + smcp (accented small capitals, with prosgegrammeni)
  • salt + smcp + calt (small capitals without accentuation, with prosgegrammeni)
