The "design space" of the variable font Recursive Sans & Mono, [1] illustrated as the nets of two cubes. A variable font (VF) is a font file that is able to store a continuous range of design variants. An entire typeface (font family) can be stored in such a file, with an infinite number of fonts available to be sampled. [2]
A numeric character reference refers to a character by its Universal Character Set/Unicode code point, and a character entity reference refers to a character by a predefined name. A numeric character reference uses the format &#nnnn; or &#xhhhh; where nnnn is the code point in decimal form, and hhhh is the code point in hexadecimal form.
The font was created by Adobe and has its own character encoding, with the Greek letters arranged according to similar Latin letters (Chi = C, etc.).The document describing the mapping to Unicode code points [2] was created before several of the characters were added to Unicode, so the original mapping assigns several of the characters to the Private Use Area (PUA).
A Unicode font is a computer font that maps glyphs to code points defined in the Unicode Standard. [8] The vast majority of modern computer fonts use Unicode mappings, even those fonts which only include glyphs for a single writing system , or even only support the basic Latin alphabet .
The Unicode standard does not specify or create any font (), a collection of graphical shapes called glyphs, itself.Rather, it defines the abstract characters as a specific number (known as a code point) and also defines the required changes of shape depending on the context the glyph is used in (e.g., combining characters, precomposed characters and letter-diacritic combinations).
