"Text figures (also known as non-lining, lowercase, old-style, ranging,
hanging, billing, or antique figures or numerals) are numerals typeset
with varying heights in a fashion that resembles a typical line of
running text, hence the name. They are contrasted with lining or titling
figures, which are all of consistent height."
