Lucida Sans Unicode (for Windows) does those nicely.

I don't remember whether I told the list (or just Bob) about Richard 
Ishida's site:

http://people.w3.org/rishida/scripts/pickers/

See especially the IPA and Latin+ pickers. They're beautifully done and 
very easy to use (assuming your browser is Unicode-compliant). It's fun 
to sit and plunk away at them. Try selecting a character, copying it, 
and pasting it into, e.g., Lucida Sans Unicode in a Word doc. (Note the 
simplicity of making composite characters--and the right-to-left text 
entry for Arabic and Hebrew.) I've downloaded them onto my hard-drive, 
and they work fine that way also, so you don't need to be on line.
