- ^† OTF+TTO: OpenType font with TrueType outlines.
- ^‡ OpenType fonts sometimes don't contain a one-by-one Kernpair table but a kern-by-classes table where groups of similar characters are seen as one kern group. For instance, V and W have nearly the same left and right geometry. So “0” doesn't mean that no kerning is supported!
