Hello,
I am reading a Russian textbook on the Arabic language and it got me wondering how Arabists write out that language using Cyrillic. There is a д with dot below, з with stroke below and so on. Has anyone coded such a spesialized font?
I would like to expand the question also to special non-historical cases of one alphabet used for transliterating foreign texts.

As for how Arabists write Arabic using cyrillic, I would assume the book you are reading has some sort of key, no? I’d guess that з̱ would be ظ. I would have guessed that д̣ would be ض, but that would be strange if a combining macron below is being used to mark emphasis, so maybe it’s ث or possibly ج. Of course, I am just guessing.
