Abstract
A system includes a computing device that includes a memory configured to store instructions. The computing device also includes a processor to execute the instructions to perform operations that include receiving data representing a glyph in a font to present the glyph on a display. In response to operations being executed to present the glyph on the display, operations include identifying one or more values shared by glyphs of the font for adjusting the appearance of the glyph, from a data table stored with the glyph in the font. Operations also include adjusting a representation of the glyph using the identified one or more shared values for presentation on the display.
