Could you explain that in a little more detail, please?
I take what you said to mean that
- U+FE45 and U+FE46 have their own glyphs
- these glyphs are intended to be scaled down to 50% of the text size
- therefore in the font they are approximately twice the size of the
comma rather than approximately the same size
- therefore an application wishing to use U+FE45 as an emphasis mark
should scale its glyph down by half before rendering it
Is that correct?
