Ligature tables at a high level tell you things like "The glyph 'a' and the glyph 'acute accent' should be merged to form the glyph 'aacute'." Internally, though, it reads more like "A #502 followed by a #397 should be replaced by a #929", where the numbers (or names, in some contexts) *represent* the actual glyph outlines. You could write "#202 followed by #999 becomes SHAVIAN PEEP glyph" without there being any actual outlines for #202 or #999, but as John says, if something actually called for a #202 to be imaged, the rendering software would go belly-up. I hope this helps. -- John Cowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] At times of peril or dubitation, http://www.ccil.org/~cowan Perform swift circular ambulation, http://www.reutershealth.com With loud and high-pitched ululation.
