Claim 6:
7. A computer-implemented method comprising:
providing a representation of a scrambling font feature for output on a graphical user interface (GUI) displayed on a display device, wherein the scrambling font feature includes a plurality of glyphs with letterforms that are mismatched with glyph codes of the plurality of glyphs, and wherein the mismatching is the result of swapping the letterforms of the plurality of glyphs, wherein swapping the letterforms of the plurality of glyphs comprises:
selecting a first letterform to swap with a second letterform by identifying a threshold level of similarity between each of: (i) a case of the first letterform and the second letterform, (ii) a positional context of the first letterform and the second letterform, wherein the positional context is used to swap positional-dependent letterforms based on the position of the positional-dependent letterforms in a word, (iii) a kerning of the first letterform and the second letterform, and (iv) side-bearings of the first letterform and the second letterform;

receiving a user input indicating selection of the scrambling font feature for a text displayed on the GUI, wherein the scrambling font style preserves a design appearance of the text; and
in response to receiving the user input, changing a stylistic configuration of the text, wherein the text is scrambled after the stylistic configuration of the text is changed.
