To my eyes, dot above right should be placed near the base letter and not be overlapped with other diacritics. BTW have you saw the link from above? |
|
Thanks for the graphic.
Yes, I did look at the image of a printed page you linked to, but it wasn't obvious what parts of it were important. That's why I requested additional information. |

Oh I have thought you have clicked the Original File link while you view on Wikimedia Commons. |

Here is the original file from Wikimedia Commons, you can see more details if you want to see what you need. |

@KrasnayaPloshchad Is it possible to get from you a full list of possible combinations with combining dot above right? |
|
OK, here is the list of possible combinations: |
Adds characters for U/udieresisbelow to address issue #184. Updates GSUB features to prevent alternates from blocking formation of small capitals, addressing issue #183. Adds double circumflex and double macron above to address issue #179. Attempts to resolve issues with combining dot above right to address issue #178, however there is still some remaining funniness in interaction with text engines and how the character string is formed. Adds characters for IPA affricate ligatures dzed, dzcurl, tccurl, dzretroflex & tshook to address issue #174. Converts Sources to UFO version 3 to address issue #148. Adds heavy quote ornaments because I like using them as ‘scare’ quotes.

@ButTaiwan Can you help? |
You've listed up all the combinations above. |
|
@ButTaiwan So can you make contributions to this font? |

There are also the 6th tone (U+030C) and the 9th tone (U+030B). (rarely used, but exist.) So the full list should be: o͘ o + U+0358 ò͘ o + U+0358 + U+0300 ̀O͘ O + U+0358 + U+0300 Compatibility sequences: ó͘ U+00F3 + U+0358 / o + U+0301 + U+0358 Ó͘ U+00D3 + U+0358 / O + U+0301 + U+0358 |
The combining dot above right is added in Source Sans Pro 3.006, but the usage of this diacritic is not perfect, this mark has some inconsistency with other diacritics or without.
The following letters can produce this problem:

This is a photo from the 1st issue of Taiwan Church News, which has some examples for this.
