Thanks, David, this is new to me. I can now paste Unicode characters 
into Notepad from Character Map. I can see an advantage to this (over 
copying directly from Character Map): you would be able to save Unicode 
text files with frequently-used characters for later copying and pasting 
into Frame.

I can't get ALT+keypad functionality to work, but this may be because I 
don't know how to convert hex to decimal. Using my previous example, 
let's say I want to type an fi ligature (U+F001). The only way I know to 
convert hex to decimal is the Windows Calculator. Input in hex, and then 
change to decimal, and F001 becomes 61441. (There should be an easier 
way to find that out...maybe there is.) So I should be able to type ALT 
61441 (from the keypad) and get an fi ligature in Notepad. Instead it 
shows me a happy face. I don't have FM8, so I can't test this there, but 
in Indesign, ALT 61441 results in no character being input. In Word, I 
*do* get an fi ligature.
