That's interesting. What is the default font you have displayed when you disable the CSS? I still have the problem when I uncheck that rule in the Inspector. I can also tell you that these fonts do have the correct vertical glyphs, as that's what's displayed in the middle and leftmost cases when I manually put them into the markup (it's not using a fallback font). Unfortunately, WebKit doesn't recognize these glyphs as vertical presentation forms of full-width punctuation even when I manually insert them, as you can see in the middle case, and rotates them 90 degrees as though they're Roman letters.
