Abstract

See full text

A diacritic positioning system employs a diacritic glyph's bounding box and the base glyph's bounding box, in combination with diacritic position data stored in the diacritic positioning system, to properly position one or more diacritics relative to the base glyph. The position data enables the diacritic positioning system to call associated functions that place multiple diacritics above and/or below a single base character without interfering with one another, e.g. to stack the diacritics. In addition, the information about the diacritic characters can be employed to prevent interference between a diacritic and the base character in special circumstances.
