I need a script which could convert a unicode character to 2 unicode characters with a kerning in between. This could be done with find and replace, except that this also will kern the distance between second character you insert and the one next to it.
What I�m really doing with this, is creating eastern european special characters with unusual accents over them. The text is imported from word/windows.
I�m on mac os9.2 with ID2.
