Hi there, I have a question for colleagues, specially the ones with a good understanding of Czech/Slovak diacritics.
I have doubts when I design very heavy lcaron, dcaron, tcaron diacritics (and I should also add napostrophe to the list, although it is used by a different language). Could you please tell me which of the 2 solutions below is considered better for Czech/Slovak typography?
Thanks in advance.

/napostrophe/ should be no different from kerned ’n sequence. It's just a legacy ISO 6937 telecommunications encoding, and has a one-way decomposition to ’n. As a separate character, it isn't included on standard Afrikaans keyboards, so I expect its use is really limited to some old databases.3 -
Thanks, John for your insightful comments.0
