Perhaps they do this because it is the last thing they want you do and
about the worst thing you can do. Microsoft provide for you fonts with
the required precomposed character, with the dot positioned by
professional typographers, and a proper user interface. Even if you were
able to do this to professional standards with a high quality publishing
program, you don't stand a chance of making the character look nice with
this kind of overstrike. Any special positioning will be totally messed
up by a change of font. The resulting document will be totally
non-portable. Please do NOT do this!!!
