<h2 id="history">History</h2>
<p>This font is just the same as Alexey Kryukov's beautiful <em>Old Standard</em>.<a href="#fn1" class="footnoteRef" id="fnref1"><sup>1</sup></a> In comparison to <em>Old Standard</em>, <em>Old Standard T</em> includes new letters and some corrections:</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Small capitals for Roman, Greek and Cyrillic letters, in all three styles, Regular, Italic and Bold have been added. Small capitals, which are missing from <em>Old Standard</em>, were already in use a century ago in fine books which used font faces very similar to <em>Old Standard</em>. Typical use cases of small capitals were headers, current headings and in some books proper names.</li>
<li>The letter G with caron above, that is: Ǧ (<code>U+01E6</code>, uppercase) and ǧ (<code>U+01E7</code>, lowercase) has been added. It is the only character missing from <em>Old Standard</em> that is needed in some of the accepted standards of romanization of classical Arabic.<a href="#fn2" class="footnoteRef" id="fnref2"><sup>2</sup></a></li>
-<li>Additionally, <em>Old Standard T</em> corrects the <code>+ss06</code> feature provided by <em>Old Standard</em>. This feature is supposed to distinguish between regular and ‘curly’ beta (β/ϐ) and to print ‘curly’ beta (<code>U+03D0</code>) in medial position. This feature works in most cases with <em>Old Standard</em>. However, it fails if the beta is preceded by a vowel with an acute accent taken from the <em>Greek extended</em> Unicode block.</li>
+<li>Additionally, <em>Old Standard T</em> corrects the <code>+ss06</code> feature provided by <em>Old Standard</em>. This feature is supposed to distinguish between regular and ‘curled’ beta (β/ϐ) and to print ‘curled’ beta (<code>U+03D0</code>) in medial position. This feature works in most cases with <em>Old Standard</em>. However, it fails if the beta is preceded by a vowel with an acute accent taken from the <em>Greek extended</em> Unicode block.</li>

<h3 id="why-old-standard-t">Why <em>Old Standard T</em>?</h3>
<p>At the time of writing, <em>Old Standard</em> was last updated six years ago. Nevertheless, the letter <code>T</code> stands for <em>Transient</em>, which means that <em>Old Standard T</em>, should only stay as long as what it features is not included in <em>Old Standard</em>.</p>
