Help! I'm out of my mind trying to figure out the best way to make an "ō" macron in helvetica neue in InDesign. It appears there is none. Suggestions?
I've turned on US Extended...Maori...but InDesign just wont recognize the character.

Macron...does Helvetica Neue have one?
It appears that there is no omacron; but you can easily compose one:
In the glyph palette, you'll see there is a "combining macron" (see below); if you type a normal "o" and then insert this combining macron from the glyph palette, it will sit/slide on top of the "o"; you might just have to kern it a little to adjust its placement.
Thanks for the note...I'll check it out!
