Special Lowercase Letters

One lowercase letter may map to more than one base letter. For example, in Turkish, I maps to both i and a dotless i. The special lowercase letters table contains the following information:

• The Unicode values (UTF-16) of each uppercase and lowercase character (Upper1, Upper2, Lower1, Lower2,)
• Glyphs for each uppercase and lowercase character
