Possible error in AC-3-exp.enc

[LibertyType]

Thomas:
One of the unencoded entries in AC-3-exp.enc actually has a Unicode value. uni0438_uni0300 == uni045D, iigrave-cy. The only noticeable difference is the naming. uni0438_uni0300 translates as ii_gravecomb-cy using OS X Services. The same situation exists for the cap version, uni0418_uni0300 == uni040D, Iigrave-cy.

I'm wondering why this duplication exists.

Thanks,
George Thomas

Sounds like a bug! I'll look into it.

Yes, this is a bug in the source data I got from Adobe. I've alerted them
to the bug, and will adjust my files appropriately.

(Although, as they use combining marks for non-Unicode combinations, it's
not clear the bug would really hurt them any.)

Thomas, I found one more in AC-3-exp.enc.

uni0415_uni0300, Ie_gravecomb-cy == Iegrave-cy, uni0400 and the
lowercase, uni0435_uni0300, ie_gravecomb-cy == iegrave-cy, uni0450.

It is kind of odd, but as you said, it probably wouldn't cause any problems.

I also spot-checked the Latin 5 unencoded but found nothing.

Best,
George Thomas

Thanks!

I've updated the file accordingly.
