If I understand what you're doing with the re-encoded /Courier-D font, you're put /.notdef in all 256 positions of the array, then replacing one position with a composite character. It appears that you're also removing the components of the composite character. From the Tutorial and Cookbook, p. 200 (Blue Book): "When encoding accented characters it is important to understand that accented characters (also known as composite characters) are actually a composite of the letter and the accent. In order to print accented characters properly, both the letter and the accent of the composite character must be encoded in the encoding vector, as well as the composite character itself. For example, if you wish to encode the composite character 'Aacute,' both the 'A' and the 'acute' must be encoded."
