Palatino and Ce

Palatino is probably my favourite serif font, which I tend to use in all my school work. Unfortunately, Palatino has an annoying little glitch, when pairing c and e at small sizes:

c and e paired in Palatino size 12 points, looking like the Scandinavian æ

This is especially problematic when you — as I do — write in a language, where æ is actually used.
