| | Wells: Orthographic diacritics |
| | In this article we discuss the various diacritics that are so used and the problems this has given rise to in a multilingual computing environment — problems now arguably on the way to a satisfactory solution through the adoption of the international standard known as Unicode. | | | For example, in Bamgboṣe 1966 the diacritic is printed as a dot in the serif font of the main text, but as a vertical line in the sans serif font of the examples. | | | We are moving from a time in which a diacritic was a problem to a time in which all things are possible. |

| | THDL: Fonts for Diacritics |
| | Until recently, diacritic fonts were encoded in ASCII and required multiple font files or code pages to render the full range of diacritics. | | | All diacritics displayed on our web pages are encoded in Unicode and require the user has a suitable Unicode font installed. | | | The information provided here is a summary of information found at Alan Wood's Unicode fonts for Macintosh OS X computers. |

| | Character design standards - Diacritics |
| | These typesetting systems used uppercase and lowercase diacritics that were on zero units with programmed logic for combining diacritics and base glyphs to make accent characters. | | | In some type manufacturer's proprietary font formats there were algorithms to create composite accented characters. | | | This is considered a starting point and visual adjustment is made dependent on the design. |

| | Middle dot |
| | A middle dot is one of several types of dots that occur in the middle of a character space, such as the examples in the following table. | | | In mathematics, a small middle dot can be used to represent the product, for example x∙y for the product of x and y. | | | In British publications up to the mid-1970s, especially scientific and mathematical texts, the decimal point was commonly typeset as a middle dot. |

| | Re: U+0140 |
| | So we can see three different vertical positions for this middle-dot, and two are encoded: (1) centered at the middle of the x-height and baseline: this is the mathemical middle-dot symbol, because most mathematical variables are lowercase letters, making this position appropriate to note a multiplication. | | | However, this would require an update to the standard collation algorithm, which assumes that strings are fully normalized before proceeding. | | | This is basically the U+00B7 character which can also be used as a punctuation mark, notably in dictionnary entries. |
