| Inferior | Replaces a default glyph with an inferior glyph, or it may combine glyph substitution with positioning adjustments for proper placement. Inferior forms are typically used in chemical formulas or mathematical notation. | |
| Normal | Default font behavior. Font scaling and positioning is normal. | |
| Ordinal | Replaces a default glyph with an ordinal glyph, or it may combine glyph substitution with positioning adjustments for proper placement. Ordinal forms are normally associated with numeric notation of an ordinal word, such as "1st" for "first." | |
