Hi all,
Due to the nature of the font I am using (which has horrendous looking combining diacritics), I have to call the unicodeglyphs directly through the \uchar command. Which works fine for the regular face. But I am unable to get the italic glyphs via the same method. So {\it \uchar{1}{01}} renders the 'normal' regular glyph.
Could somebody help me out?
Is amacron (ā) the character that you want to use? Which font do you use (and which encoding and regime)? Do you use pdftex or any other platform (XeTeX perhaps)? You don't need to put silly \uchar{}{} definitions in the text, I'm sure there is a more elegant way to do it. If the placement of the macron doesn't suit your font, you can redefine it and get rid of those \uchar-s. You can still use unicode or whatever input encoding (regime) you need (Latin4/6/7?). Send a complete minimal example to the list, including font definitions. Mojca PS: if you need to use amacron/Amacron, you can try to be more annoying on the list. You would need another encoding then (enco-el, "dense" encoding) which has to be finished once in the near future.
