Fonts like Myriad Pro or Calibri don't have a Serbian localized sha by default, but Whitney (http://www.typography.com/fonts/font_features.php?featureID=14&productLineID=100026#localization) does. Either way that shouldn't be a problem. Hi Denis, Yes, I mean that glyph should be an optional subset of the localized Serbian glyph set. Greetings Bump! Do you intend to implement this glyph? As a salt stuff, of course, it's not meant to be mandatory. FreeSerif now supports it, maybe that could tip the scales in favour of it. Bump! Do you intend to implement this glyph?

It shouldn't be such a hard stuff to implement. Regards |

Created attachment 52693 [details] SHA is the last letter The support for Serbian localized glyphs is quite complete in DejaVu Serif, the only thing lacking is the OPTIONAL, that is NOT MANDATORY localized glyph for Italic U+0448 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER SHA. This glyph should be activated not automatically, whenever the user selects Serbian as language, but as an optional subset of the Serbian localization table. It would be incorrect as well to give this glyph as a STANDARD (that is, valid for all Cyrillic-based languages) optional glyph, for it's appropriate only in Serbian typesetting. The expected glyph can be found in the image I uploaded. SHA is the last letter.
