jglavy Greetings,
I'm trying to make a font opentype friendly toward using Greek letters with non-canonical diacritics (such as used in Arvantic and Karamanli, etc). I can't even get the dieresis (combining, or otherwise) to keep from colliding with the capital Sigma. I've tried work-arounds such as precomposing a Sigma with dieresis but can't get it to output the precomposition when typing Σ and ¨ . I can make up some completely arbitrary letter like S with ¨ and then link it to the precomposed Sigma-with-dieresis and THAT will output properly....but only with Latin letters.
Any advice on how I can resolve this...or is this one of the Uniscribe limitations? It does seem that the Greek range won't let me put any diacritics over Capital or lower case that are as tall as capital letters.
Please help
