If the combination you need isn't listed above, the LaserWriter fonts also have all the various accents as separate characters (96,171,172, and 246-255) so you can build what you want using Word's overstriking capabilities. I hope this is of some use to you. Kurt W. Hirchert National Center for Supercomputing Applications
