> 1. kw (the w is a superscript) > 2. hw (w is superscript) Those two are not a single character in the UCS; the ʷ is: U+02B7 MODIFIER LETTER SMALL W and it looks like all of the DejaVu faces support that character. > 3. ss (2 s's placed close together) > 4. kk (2 k's placed close together) You can simulate those two with kerning. It’ll take a little more code, but will be usable with essentially any font. > 5. čč (2 č's close together) Again, use kerning. The individual chars are: U+010D LATIN SMALL LETTER C WITH CARON U+010C LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C WITH CARON Looking at the font you attached, you may not require any kerning after all; just set ss as ss, kk as kk and čč as čč. Thank you, James Coos! I shall do as you advise.
