+      <dd>These characters are sideways (rotated 90&deg; clockwise) in both

+      <dd>These characters are sideways  in

+      <dd>These characters are oriented sideways in both ''upright-right''
+      and ''upright'' text orientations. However, since OpenType fonts that
+      support vertical writing store their vertical glyph variants upright,
+      they are usually typeset upright with vertical font settings turned on.
+    <dt>transforms (T)</dt>
+      <dd>These characters' glyphs change significantly between vertical and
+      horizontal writing (regardless of typeface style). They are typeset
+      upright in both ''upright-right''  and ''upright'' text orientations,
+      and correct typography requires variant glyphs.
+      <p class="note">For more subtle differences in glyph shape, such as
+      variant brush strokes and alignent, it is suggested that OpenType
+      define a glyph substitution feature for characters in the S classes,
