>>  Further to Antony's reference to the availability of overdots (buailte) in
>>  the Arial Unicode sans-serif font, they are also available in the new
>>  Gentium Unicode serif font (freeware from
>>  http://www.sil.org/~gaultney/gentium/).
>
Other Unicode fonts including the buailte characters are Code2000
(shareware from http://home.att.net/~jameskass/), Free Monospaced and Free
Serif (freeware from http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/freefont/), and
Thryomanes (freeware from http://www.io.com/~hmiller/lang/).

When looking for Unicode fonts with buailte characters, it is important to
note that these characters are not all found in the same range: lower- and
upper-case "c" and "g" with overdot are found in Latin Extended-A, but all
other consonants with overdots are found in Latin Extended Additional.
