   Try International fonts, specifically Int. Roman Font.  This font
not only has a large number of accent marks for dozens of languages,
but they can all be typed above or below any character, regardless
of height or width.  I don't know if this character is indeed a
cedilla, but there is one.
   The font can be distributed freely; it is on the Educorp CD ROM,
or by mail from
   Dr. Paul Rapoport

   I'm willing to BinHex and email the font to a few people.
