We can take advantage of the coordinate transformations.

'''Part 1. ~~Glypths~~ for each digit'''

'''Part 1. Glyphs for each digit'''

The glyphs of each "digit" are the same, excepting they are mirrored according if ~~they~~ ~~are in~~ "units", "tens", "hundreds" and "thousands" ~~place~~, so we have generic code for each.

The glyphs of each "digit" are the same, excepting they are mirrored according to its place ("units", "tens", "hundreds" and "thousands"), so we have generic code for each.

The following specification are for "units" and it is independent of size. They are referred to the top-right "quadrant" of the complete number, which has mathematical coordinate system, being (-1, -1) the bottom-left corner, and (1, 1) the opposite one, hence, the center is (0, 0).

'''Part 2. Mirroring for "tens", "hundreds" and "thousands"'''

The following is the specification to change the scale, according to the place and to produce the mirrored effect. Notice that there is no specification for "units", because the definitions of ~~glypths~~ are based on ~~"units"~~ and therefore there is no transformation to apply.
