Interestingly enough it seems like the Java compiler would also convert `\"\\u0301a\"` to á, but `\"a\\u0301e\"` = áe, so clearly the combining accent should be applied to the preceding character.\r\n\r\nDouble combining accents are not supported in either HTML nor Unicode to LaTeX conversion. While some of the codes are there, the behavior is not correct. For example, `b&#x35E;c` or `\"b\\u035Cc\"`, meaning b͞c, should be converted to something clever, probably not `{\\textdoublemacron{b}}c` which is the current result from HTML."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/JabRef/jabref/issues/comments/146109602","html_url":"https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/207#issuecomment-146109602","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/JabRef/jabref/issues/207","id":146109602,"user":{"login":"ThomasA","id":971307,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/971307?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA","html_url":"https://github.com/ThomasA","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ThomasA/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-10-07T08:10:26Z","updated_at":"2015-10-07T08:10:26Z","body":"As far as I know most, if not all, of IEEE's journals use the IEEEtran class and require the use of a BibTeX-compatible .bib-file or a finished `thebibliography` environment (which Biber/Biblatex cannot produce). IEEE do not actually use LaTeX to format the papers but have a proprietary system that converts the LaTeX to some XML format, so it would probably be **very** difficult to convince them to change that."}}
