"Double-Stuck Italic" chars in "Letterlike Symbols" #6

Closed davidmjones closed 6 years ago

davidmjones commented 13 years ago

In STIXGeneral 1.0.0, the five "Double-Struck Italic" code-points from the "Letterlike Symbols" block are upright chars, contrary to their Unicode names: "ⅅⅆⅇⅈⅉ" ([U+2145 DOUBLE-STRUCK ITALIC CAPITAL D] [U+2146 DOUBLE-STRUCK ITALIC SMALL D] [U+2147 DOUBLE-STRUCK ITALIC SMALL E] [U+2148 DOUBLE-STRUCK ITALIC SMALL I] [U+2149 DOUBLE-STRUCK ITALIC SMALL J]). Shouldn't these be italic/oblique, rather than apparently identical to the corresponding properly upright code-points from the "Mathematical Double-Struck" section of the "Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols" block? "𝔻𝕕𝕖𝕚𝕛" ([U+1D53B] [U+1D555] [U+1D556] [U+1D55A] [U+1D55B])

Note: If the first string above *is* italic/oblique, it is of course because your browser is currently displaying these chars using a font other than STIXGeneral. (I couldn't immediately locate any documentation regarding what HTML markup, if any, is allowed in submissions to this bug-tracking interface, nor is there apparently a "preview" display that would allow experimentation here.)
