Apple Symbols (typeface)
Apple Symbols is a font introduced in Mac OS X 10.3 “Panther”. This is a TrueType font intended to provide coverage for characters defined as symbols in the Unicode Standard. It continues to ship with Mac OS X as part of the default installation. Prior to Mac OS X 10.5, its path was /Library/Fonts/Apple Symbols.ttf. From Mac OS X 10.5 onward, it is to be found at /System/Library/Fonts/Apple Symbols.ttf, meaning it is now considered an essential part of the system software, not to be deleted by users. The version of the font as of Mac OS X 10.5 is 6.0d7e4. It remains available in modern macOS versions such as macOS Ventura. List of glyphs The Mac OS X version of the font contains over 5,000 glyphs from the following Unicode blocks: * U+0000 – U+007F — Basic Latin * U+0080 – U+00FF — Latin-1 Supplement * U+0180 – U+024F — Latin Extended-B * U+02B0 – U+02FF — Spacing Modifier Letters * U+0300 – U+036F — Combining Diacritical Marks * U+0370 – U+03 ...

Computer Font
A computer font is implemented as a digital data file containing a set of graphically related glyphs. A computer font is designed and created using a font editor. A computer font specifically designed for the computer screen, and not for printing, is a screen font. In the terminology of movable type, movable metal type, a ''typeface'' is a set of characters that share common design features across styles and sizes (for example, all the varieties of Gill Sans), while a ''font'' is a set of pieces of movable type in a specific typeface, size, width, weight, slope, etc. (for example, Gill Sans bold 12 point). In HTML, CSS, and related technologies, the Font family (HTML), font family attribute refers to the digital equivalent of a typeface. Since the 1990s, many people outside the printing industry have used the word ''font'' as a synonym for ''typeface''. There are three basic kinds of computer font file data formats: * Bitmap fonts consist of a matrix of dots or pixels represent ...

Number Forms
Number Forms is a Unicode block containing Unicode compatibility characters that have specific meaning as numbers, but are constructed from other characters. They consist primarily of vulgar fractions and Roman numerals. In addition to the characters in the Number Forms block, three fractions (¼, ½, and ¾) were inherited from ISO-8859-1, which was incorporated whole as the Latin-1 Supplement The Latin-1 Supplement (also called C1 Controls and Latin-1 Supplement) is the second Unicode block in the Unicode standard. It encodes the upper range of ISO 8859-1: 80 (U+0080) – FF (U+00FF). C1 Controls (0080–009F) are not graphic. T ... block.

Braille Patterns
The Unicode block Braille Patterns (U+2800..U+28FF) contains all 256 possible patterns of an 8-dot braille cell, thereby including the complete 6-dot cell range.Unicode Chapter 15 section 15.10 In Unicode, a braille cell does not have a letter or meaning defined. For example, Unicode does ''not'' define to be "R". Independent script In themselves, braille letters do not belong to any print script, but constitute a distinct braille script. The same braille letter can be used to transcribe multiple scripts, e.g. Latin, Cyrillic, Greek and even elements of Chinese characters, as well as digits. Thus while transcribes the letter ''h'' of the Latin script, as well as the digit ''8'', it transcribes ᄐ ''t-'' of Korean |
