Hi,

Last night I posted a fix for this.  I made it to use either combining overline U+0305; or combining conjoining macron U+FE26. So far in serif normal only.

In FreeSerif, U+FE26 COMBINING CONJOINING MACRON is too short above some Coptic letters. That is, it does not touch the macron segment to the left. The following lists the affected letters.

With a macron, these letters are used as numbers. U+FE26 is too short above some other Coptic letters in FreeSerif, but since they are not used as numbers, I didn’t mention them. This is not to say that those other letters can’t take a macron; they probably do, but I don’t know for sure.
