>Does anyone know of a font that has a downward pointing caret? This, >>, rotated 90? clockwise? This diacritic is used in a number of languages, but in each case only on certain letters, e.g., the great composer Dvo?ak. To type that character you need the character that has the r and its diacritic combined, i.e., once you know the Unicode number for the character+diacritic you just type it as one letter. As an example, an ? is Unicode E9, an ? is E8, and so on. There also exist 'combining diacriticals' which are just the diacritics, but offset so they will appear on top of the preceding character. These are trickier to use because not all letters are the same width, so getting the diacritic centered on the letter can take some finagling. At this point I should mention my favorite font Junicode because it has an excellent selection of letters with all kinds of included diacritics as well as a fairly complete set of combining diacriticals in case you need to make up one on your own.
