Usage edit
 | Note: Old style figures are a form of font variant. Enforcing a specific font variant should only be done where such a thing doesn't impact readability and provides added value to the work or helps distinguish content where such distinction was made in the original work. For more information, see Help:Fonts and WS:Manual of Style. |
A template to create old style figures using the CSS font variant selector font-variant-numeric: oldstyle-nums;. Simply insert text such as:
- {{old style|0123456789}}
to produce:
- 0123456789
Browser support may be limited. If so, the numerals will display in the default style.
