In my experience, a dotted circle is an indication that there's a non-base character which needs a base character before it, but there's no suitable base character. If you type a Unicode Combining Acute Accent (U+0301), but there's no base character (like a vowel) preceding it, you'll get such a dotted circle.

If I'm not mistaken, U+1133E is the Grantha Vowel Sign Aa. Maybe it needs a consonant to its left?

Bonjour,

I want to use some glyph using the command \symbol. In some case I get a
glyph with a dotted circle, how can I get the glyph without this circle?

For instance, if I type \symbol{"1133E}, I get this as a result after
compilation:   𑌾    with a dotted circle before.

Is it possible to eliminate the circle? And how?

Thank you.
