As a thought for your macron vowels.

The current varieties of Windows stuff include Times New Roman Special G1 and Special G2, and I believe a Special G1 at least for Arial. I'm not sure that these come with Windows. I think they're in Win98 but they might have crept onto my machines with Office Pro which I also use.

The TNR-Special G1 includes a number of macron vowels. They appear to have unique "ANSI" (actually UNICODE?) character values, so they should transmit the proper character values in a web page.

To be displayed on a receiving browser, the browser would need to be able to use the font pages appropriate for these "subpage" fonts, and I'm still trying to sort out how "font paging" works in Windows - let alone in HTML.

At least for normal document work, you can lift the characters from the G1/G2 fonts with the Windows Character Map utility.

IE lets you set several "languages" simultaneously, and is supposed to pick from them "in the order listed," but I don't see a place to set these "special" subfonts, so setting TimesNewRoman may include them(?) or not(??).
