I've considered doing this; but I wonder how the kerning (if I have my
terms straight) would work. When "WA" is typeset, the 'W' actually
ends up partially "over" the 'A.' Is this an automatic process? If I
make a caligraphic 'A' that looks like, say:
____________________
/ /\
/ \
/ \
/======\
/ \
/ \
/ \
and put it after a sentence that ends with 'i,' so that I had "i. A"
would I automatically get:
____________________
/ /\
/ \
o / \
/======\
| / \
| / \
| o / \
or do I have to specify each case of kerning separately?
