Yikes.

There seem to be a number of spacing-around-accented-characters problems 
cropping up. This is at least the third such version of a similar 
problem that I've heard of recently. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of a 
solution at this point .. other than trying other fonts. Maybe someone 
else can suggest a solution.

I'm not married to either of them, but I NEED Unicode fonts to work in the files I have going forward for some of my docs that have multiple languages in them.  There's 28 other languages in this same doc (a safety sheet), and I was *so* excited that I'd be able to do them all in one Frame file instead of having to use CorelDraw.
