TL;DR: If you could't open or install the font, please use the files with a prefix of [W].
Excelpt from lyrics of Wayward Daughter (Moonlight Riginus: The Battle of the Barbarian Tsukuyomi)
Currently supports:
By default, this typeface features proportional glyphs in both horizontal and vertical typesetting. Due to the scripture design, it is highly recommended to use vertical typesetting. Most glyphs in this typeface have vert alternatives.
Below are the currently supported Opentype features.
liga (default on) Currently features ligatures between ! & ? , and double emdashes —— .
dlig (default off) The official glyph table includes a few kana ligatures (abbreviated pseudonym): some traditional ones,より→ゟandコト→ヿ, as well as some related to the lore in the game, such as Saburai, Doma, etc.
swsh (default off)There's a set of ligatures that looks like double vowels kana in the official glyph table. I'm still not sure about how it is expected to be used but here we go.
Note that not all double vowels are expected to be combined, based on the meanings of the phrase. In 1.001 update , the double vowels ligatures are listed as
swshto avoid automatic subscription triggered byliga.
fwid (default off)By toggle this on, all kana in horizontal typesetting will be subjected with full-width alternatives. This is NOT recommended for use.
In the source file, these are actually the original glyphs traced from the official glyph table. So basically, these are just the backup for current glyphs and serve as ref for font development.
vert , vkna , vrt2 (automatic)Excelpt from lyrics of Sunrise (Thousand Years of Akatsuki ~Suzaku Susumu Battle~)
These features should be automatically applied when using a modern design software.
salt (default off) Currently only features a different (personal) design of full-width brackets 【】 , with vertical support.
ss01 : Alternative vertical punctuation layout form (default off) A personal attempt to implement an alternative layout of vertical punctuation (direct layout). This style of punctuation application may be seen in antique Chinese books. Will move 、，。 to the side, ie between the rows. (colored in red in vertical support preview)
ss02 : Center-align vertical sutegana (default off)Personally I feel that the sutegana in this specific typeface could be center-aligned in vertical typesetting, based on its handwriting style of the script.
