The Roman characters with macron or breve are present in many Unicode fonts: in fact most combinations (Ā ā Ă ă Ē ē Ĕ ĕ Ī ī Ĭ ĭ Ō ō Ŏ ŏ Ū ū Ŭ ŭ) are present in a large number of system fonts; only in the case of ȳ and Ȳ is the character found not found in Windows system fonts (at least in XP). All these characters are present in the GreekKeys Unicode fonts. In Windows, you need to enter such characters using an alternative method of input. Return to top of FAQ.
