Identifying glyphs in some 16th century fonts: a case study  

Some glyphs from 16th century fonts, described in the monumental work “Polonia Typographica Saeculi Sedecimi”, can be more or less easily identified with the Unicode standard characters. Some glyphs don't have Unicode codepoints, but can be printed with an appropriate OpenType/TrueType fonts using typographic features. For some of them their encoding remains an open question. Some examples will be discussed.
