Re: [NTG-context] font question re U+00336
I think I'll take comfort from your final comment - the output looks good enough! But I remain intrigued.

Isn't it really just an en rule (or very similar to such)? Or in other words, how do I best overcome the problem of this missing character? "combining" means a combining accent. In case you’re on MacOS and copied the text from e.g. a PDF, MacOS decomposes many (all?) accented vowels, like u + combining trema instead of a proper ü umlaut glyph, and that can cause missing or displaced accents, depending on the font. Similar with additional space “glyphs” that are often missing in fonts and cause warnings like this. Are you missing any characters where this long stroke should appear? 3. And perhaps connected with the above question: is there good fallback solution one can use? Do I need to \definefontfallback something or is there an automatic one already happening? I've started to examine the log files a bit more carefully for various items and it is showing up my ignorance!! I wouldn’t call that ignorance – you can ignore a lot of warnings if the output looks good enough.
