In fact, just using most of these IPA characters seems equally problematic:

The actual character for  ipamacro-insert_tone-high-rising-falling
displays correctly in the text buffer, but for some others I am not so sure.

For example global-rise and global-fall are cut off in the toolbar, but
look 'OK', yet very different in the text when inserted.


Downstep gives me the blank unicode square.

voiceless doesn't display at all in the toolbar…


Can someone provide a link or a an MWE with all IPA characters and a
complete, documented target PDF to test for?
