Well, I was working from the Unicode charts, as I didn't have access to Lucida Sans Unicode at that point --- but as John Cowan explained, the yoghs are part of a small range of characters that were added to the Latin Extended B block in Unicode 3.0, after the release of Lucida Sans Unicode and Arial Unicode MS. So Word's character map wouldn't find show T WITH COMMA or H WITH CARON in that block either, unless you had a font with them. However, I thought the problem was that your font had EZH's in those positions instead of YOGH's. Lars Mathiesen (U of Copenhagen CS Dep) <thorinn@...> (Humour NOT marked)
