I've got a load of Gaelic fonts and some that are Celtic styles. I'd read the Wikipedia article and various ones on Et / & / 7, thanks. No, I'd not insert any dotless i character such as ı that's not at the i position in the font.

The Irish is closer to a 7 than a 1 and the Hebrew & is actually their letter Vav. Both modern Gaelic (and old stuff) and Hebrew use a symbol like a cross between a 1 and 7 for the & symbol which in English is Et and used to be listed after z. It's also good if the a, g, n and & etc are in the older Gaelic styles. It might be close to Baeyf or Baeyv for an English speaker. Some old Irish words lost the dots before dots were changed to an added h, so the name Badb is really Badhbh, though that might not help people much. Irish only has the áéíóú as vowel accents, so those are not a problem. I suspect old Scottish is the same as it has ì and í in the Gaelic. Paper is no problem, because you include the fonts in the PDF and that's exactly what is used.

I want one that has ı for the i position to allow fall back to i rather than in the text! Georgia and some other fonts do have a dotless i: ı, but that's only good for paper as not in the i position. Additionally some letters had a dot to indicated hard/soft/accent which are now shown by suffix of an h: bh, dh, gh, mh, etc. Why do I want a font with no dot on the i for ebooks?īecause traditionally Irish used no dot on the i, because some are í.
