On my machine, in LuaTeX (3) results in a correctly positioned *red* diaeresis over a black A. (4) results in a red diaeresis with incorrect positioning, both vertical and horizontal. I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 and TexLive 2011. >> XeTeX: The color special prevents the glyph recombination and U+0308 is >> processed separately without knowing the base character (3 and 4) Yes, I can confirm this also. >> Thus the workaround would be to prevent the recombination and to fix the >> placement manually. Would it be possible to read the positioning data out of GPOS in order to do this manual placement? It could then be handled by a macro.
