Need an accented character that doesn’t exist in the font you’re using? You might be able to create your own custom accented character if the font has the floating accent. Use the Glyph panel (Type > Glyphs) to browse the font for the accent.
Add the accent after the character in the text, by double-clicking the accent in the Glyphs panel. Then use baseline shift and kerning to center the accent over the character.
You might also need to increase the kerning between the accent and the following character to compensate.
