I think, and others agree, that this is a bad thing. Those who want SS can simply use 'S' and 'S', ẞ was encoded for those who wanted to use a capital form of ß. They would be annoyed if they found that the typeface they wanted subverted their intentions. -------------------------------------------- On Sat, 7/1/17, a.lukyanov via Unicode <unicode@unicode.org> wrote:
Subject: Re: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER SHARP S officially recognized To: unicode@unicode.org Received: Saturday, July 1, 2017, 2:51 AM Is it possible to design fonts that will render ẞ as SS? So we could choose between ẞ and SS by just selecting the proper font, without changing the text itself. Or perhaps there will be a "font feature" to select this rendering within the same font.
