Problem

Symptoms: The customer needs to print an E with an arrow over the top of it (scientific equation). Using Equation Editor, Print as Graphics No, using default font of Times Roman 12 (25 in 1), the arrow is right through the top half of the E. To test, type E VEC in the Equation Editor. Using Overstrike, type E[superscript]arrow (compose character 6,21), the arrow is again too low. The customer was able to position the arrow correctly using advance codes. It also prints fine with Print as Graphics set to Yes. Solutions: There are no diacriticals in character set 6, so the VECTOR character is not treated like a diacritical. Some set 6 characters could be defined as diacriticals, but they really aren't. If the program did that, then whenever the characters were in an overstrike region they would be diacriticals, and whenever they were not in an overstrike region they would be normal characters. Text mode diacriticals are handled by the printer code, not equations.
