In order to dispense with these compatibility characters, text software must conform to several Unicode protocols. The software must be able to:

#Compose diacritic marked graphemes from letter characters and one or more separate combining diacritic marks.

#Substitute (at the author or readersreader's discretion) ligatures and contextual glyph variants.

#Layout CJKV text vertically (at the author's or reader's discretion), substituting glyphs for small, vertical, narrow, wide square forms, either from font data or synthesized as needed.

#Combine fractions using the '[[⁄|Fraction Slash]]' character (⁄ U+2044) and any other arbitrary characters.
