Problems with diacritic characters


Recommended Posts

I have to use some rather exotic characters that include diacritics. Some of these are not displayed correctly by Publisher, as illustrated the attached images. 

The illustrations show 7 characters. The first two have diacritics above the base character: Publisher displays these correctly. The other five have diacritics below the base character: Publisher displays these incorrectly. For comparison I attach screen-grabs from Windows Notepad, which displays all the characters correctly.

Below are the Unicodes for these 7 characters. Note that characters 5 and 7 each include 2 diacritics.

The characters are Tibetan - I did say that I use some exotic stuff :-) - and Windows displays the required Unicode range using the font "Microsoft Himalaya".

Character 1 0F4F 0F7E
Character 2 0F62 0F7A
Character 3 0F4F 0F74
Character 4 0F4F 0F71 
Character 5 0F66 0FAD 0F71
Character 6 0F67 0F71 
Character 7 0F4F 0F9F 0F71
