In one of the 'colored books', Tutorial and Cookbook, is an example.
I dont have the books at hand but I think is was: making minor changes to
an existing font. The trick is, to copy the font to a new font and
inserting the composite characters. I copied the axample program and
changed it for printing german 'Umlaute' - Adieresis, adieresis ... -.
It worked fine. If I understood right, the name Adieresis implies
combination of A and dieresis.
