It’s also why I add those glyphs by myself with a font editor. Naysayers may complain that it’s against the license of those fonts or whatever but I say that the font designer has a skill issue. I’m used to High-Logic Font Creator but Glyphr Studio is free.\n>\n> I picked the fifth font here (Bernard MT Condensed) and went to attempt to add Polish characters.\n>\n> It may seem daunting, but in practice you have four cases to handle (and their lowercase variants):\n>\n>   * Polish characters with acute: Ó, Ź, Ń, Ś, Ć\n>   * Polish characters with ogonek: Ą, Ę\n>   * Ł\n>   * Ż\n>\n\n>\n> Acute tends to be easy to handle because French has É and Spanish has Á, É, Í, Ó, Ú - you can simply copy it on top of O, Z, N, S, C to get Ó, Ź, Ń, Ś, Ć.

What gives? At least we can easily copy it on top of A and E. Otherwise I tend to appropriate a comma character (,) or curly quotation marks (” and ’), rotate it and join it with A and E.\n>\n> Ł is another difficult to handle. I tend to appropriate a slash (/) or a rotated/stretched hyphen (-) and paste it on top of L, and then join it with the base character.\n>\n> Ż is easy to handle because we can use a single dot from German umlauts (Ä, Ö, Ü). If those don’t exist in the source font, a dot (.) is fine too.\n>\n> Using the standard mnemonic for Polish characters (“zażółć gęślą jaźń”), we can tell that all the characters are present\n>\n> ALT\n\nAnd then Hungarians joining the fun with fonts having everything you can think of, except **ő** and **ű** (called double acute, or Hungarian umlaut)\n\n(for which I made a tool to help out)",
