<DIV>hi</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I need to use the subscripted digits in the range U+2080 through U+2089. I've patched in a suitable font, and in general it works fine.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>However, I have two problems (the first one is more a misfortune than a problem):</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1. Typewriter doesn't seem to support those. Pity... but I can find another font I suppose (suggestions, anyone?)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2. More significant: when I try to space these out using \so (from soul), the subscripted digit gets lost.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>XeLaTeX input below.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Is there another approach to spacing out I could use, or is there some parameter setting I'm not aware of?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks!<BR></DIV>
