The round style was used in the Unicode charts for all letters except for the ones that existed only in the square style.</p> <p>A round Glagolitic font may or may not include the square-only letters. Likewise a square font may or may not include the round-only letters.</p> <h4><a name="samples" />Font Samples </h4> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript"
