Hi.
While I was using the font with some text including pinyin with tones, I noticed some characters are not currently supported. So I did a simple check with a table for letters used in pinyin at Wikipedia, and found that these single codepoint characters seem to be absent in Public Sans.
Ǎ, Ǐ, Ǒ, Ǔ, ǎ, ǐ, ǒ
Ǖ, Ǘ, Ǚ, Ǜ, ǖ, ǘ, ǚ, ǜ
(rare letters) Ḿ, Ǹ, ḿ, ǹ
While the ones in the 1st and 3rd rows (with only 1 diacritic) can still be expressed with the base letter and a combining diacritic (such as a combining caron U+030C), the ones in the second row (with a diaeresis and another diacritic) cannot be done so because the positions of combining diacritics clash with one another.
Other rarer combinations also suffer from the diacritic clashing problem: Ê̄, Ê̌, ê̄, ê̌.
And other combinations seem for some reason to not combine at all: M̄, M̌, M̀, m̄, m̌, m̀.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great if
Single codepoint characters exist in the font as precomposed characters
Composed characters using combining diacritics do combine without clashing
