<html><head><style type="text/css"><!-- DIV {margin:0px;} --></style></head><body><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt">Hi,<br><br> I am currently using xetex + fontspec (which are part of MikTeX v.7 for Windows). I am able to get xetex to use the fonts on my windows system. I want to control the placement of the accents generated with Tex commands such as \.{}, \={}, \d{}. Previously I was able to do this using the macros provided in exaccent.sty. I am wondering how I would accomplish the same result when xetex is directly using a native TTF font. <br><br> I have pasted a small test file at the end of this email. Any help/pointers are appreciated.<br><br>thanks,<br>radha<br><br><hr style="width: 100%; height: 2px;"><br>\documentclass[11pt,letterpaper]{article}<br>\usepackage{fontspec}<br>\usepackage{exaccent}<br>\newfontfamily\trebuchetfont[BoldFont = {* Bold}, ItalicFont = {* Italic}, BoldItalicFont = {*
