I had high hopes that one of them would work. Alas, ... Here are the results. Andy's suggestion: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{fontspec} \begin{document} \fontspec{Kozuka Mincho Pr6N}辻 \addfontfeature{RawFeature=+expt}辻 \end{document} Result: This didn't work. It produced only the base character, not the variant. I also tried +aalt and +salt. No go. David's suggestion: \char"8FBB\char"E0100 Result: Didn't work. It produced the base character, followed by a box with an X in it. I also copied the variant into the source, but that failed also. Incidentally, Kozuka Mincho is freely available for Adobe Reader.
