In the support of West African orthographies the design of italics becomes a bit tricky because of the letters F with hook (uppercase Ƒ, lowercase: ƒ) and V with hook (Upper case Ʋ, minuscule: ʋ). A way to deal with this is carefully choosing the shapes of italics for f, v, and subsequently also w, see Knappen 1993. Fonts for Africa: The fc fonts. TUGboat 14, 104–106.
