    :-)Please help me find fonts for the Ewe language (spoken in West
    Africa: Ghana, Togo and Benin). I can find some characters in
    Wordperfect and MS-Word, but they are not easy to use, their sizes
    don't fit the "regular" characters, others are are missing, such as the reverse [C]that gives the sound [O] in [door]. The special characters
    are often taken from the phonetic alphabet.
    If someone out there wouldn't mind to give me her/his Fax #, I could
    fax her/him a photocopy of the Ewe alphabet. Olympia, in Germany, used
    to manufacture Ewe typewriters.
    I would really appreciate your help and suggestions

    Thanks
