The highlighted font in the JPG at

http://www.arrimage.info/fontcomp2.jpg

has a diamond pip as the dot in the lower case i. After spending a morning
looking through slab serif fonts, I still haven't found one like this.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Your help will be gratefully
appreciated!!!

Most likely done in a graphics program such as Corel Draw or Adobe Illustrator.

James:
"P22JohnstonUnderground.ttf" has a diamond shape dot over the i.
Please don't ask where I found it, as I have no idea. I just collect fonts
that appeal to me as I go along, no record of source.

It could be that it's a full point (period) from Goudy that's been
placed over the lc i. I remembering doing the exact thing for an AD
many years ago.

Could it be something as simple as when used at lower sizes the dot distorts
to look like a diamond. I have seen this effect happen before.
