See also: Letterlike Symbols (Unicode block)
For a list of all numerals encoded in Unicode, see Numerals in Unicode.

Number Forms is a Unicode block containing Unicode compatibility characters that have specific meaning as numbers, but are constructed from other characters. They consist primarily of vulgar fractions and Roman numerals. In addition to the characters in the Number Forms block, three fractions (¼, ½, and ¾) were inherited from ISO-8859-1, which was incorporated whole as the Latin-1 Supplement block.
