+<p>This font is just the same as Alexey Kryukov’s beautiful <em>Old
+Standard</em>.<a href="#fn1" class="footnote-ref" id="fnref1"
+role="doc-noteref"><sup>1</sup></a> In comparison to the previous
+releases of <em>Old Standard</em>, it includes new letters and some
+corrections:</p>
+<ol type="1">
+<li>Small capitals for Roman, Greek and Cyrillic letters, in all three
+styles, Regular, Italic and Bold have been added. Small capitals, which
+were 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><em>For the time being</em>, a bold italic shape has been
+auto-generated. Of course, auto-generating shapes is not a satisfactory
+solution. However, it is better than using the font loader to emulate
+bold shapes. A real bold italic shape is planned in the versions of
+<em>Old Standard</em> to come.</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="footnote-ref" id="fnref2"
+role="doc-noteref"><sup>2</sup></a></li>
+<li>Additionally, this release 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
+worked in most cases with the previous release of <em>Old Standard</em>.
+However, it failed if the beta is preceded by a vowel with an acute
+accent taken from the <em>Greek extended</em> Unicode block.</li>
+</ol>
+<h3 id="why-a-new-release-of-old-standard">Why a new release of <em>Old
+Standard</em>?</h3>
+<p>At the time of writing, <em>Old Standard</em> was last updated six
+years ago. Being unable himself to contact the author, the writer, while
+in need to have new letters included in <em>Old Standard</em> and some
+issues addressed, took the decision to make a new release of <em>Old
+Standard</em>, while maintaining the hope that the author will one day
+resume the development of this typeface.</p>
