About the outlined latin cross symbol

Outlined versions of the Latin cross appear on some church signage, memorial plaques, and in liturgical printed materials where a less solid visual weight is desired. This particular glyph is a stylized, open-form cross with a hollow interior, contrasting with the more common solid Latin cross found in most typefaces.

As a dingbat, it belongs to a collection of decorative symbols rather than a standard writing system. Its use is primarily ornamental or symbolic, often serving as a subtle religious marker in design work or as a bullet point in lists related to Christian topics.
