 As of version 1.09 (2017-06-25) there is a new collection of Cyrillic glyphs in \emph{XCharter}, copied from Andrey Panov's \emph{Khartiya}, an extension of the free Charter fonts, with small caps included. Some new figure styles were also copied from \emph{Khartiya}---inferiors, numerators and denominators. Along with these additions, there are now slanted versions for those who wish to have both slanted and italic text available to meet distinct semantic purposes. Note that figures and uppercase slanted and italic are almost identical (except for slanted \textsl{Q} and italic \textit{Q}) but lower-case forms are distinct.
