I'm typesetting with XeLaTeX, using fontspec, and calling a font provided to me by the publisher of a manuscript I'm working on. (Same as my previous post!)
The language I work with has a letter O with circumflex and breve (U+00F4,U+0306): ô̆. However, the publisher-provided font does not use mark-to-mark positioning, so when I typeset in XeLaTeX, the combining breve overlays the circumflex. Back in January of 2013, there was discussion of this very issue, which included talk of a potentially forthcoming solution where XeTeX would handle this problem for us. Does anyone know whether there is now a straightforward way of doing this? (By *straightforward* I mean, "easy for a XeTeX dabbler." I know how to load a package, how to type, and how to typeset inside TeXShop. I do not know how to program.) Thanks, and best regards! Josh Jensen
