Fractional Fonts???

I�d like to insert fraction fonts into my manuals. I reviewed the Character_Sets.pdf file, but the only fractional fonts I can find are �, �, and � (Alt+ 0188, 0189, & 0190, respectively). I�d like to insert other fraction fonts too (e.g., 1/3).

1. Does anyone know how to insert other fractional fonts?

2. If so, can you tell me how or where I can find instructions and tables that lists these special characters and instructions on how to do it?

3. I also tried using special characters from the Windows Character Map, but was unsuccessful. For example, the Tohoma font lists 1/8, 3/8, 5/8, and 7/8 using Unicode U+215B, U+215C, U+215D, and U+215E, respectively. The dialog box doesn�t show the ANSI (Alt+) code for these fractional fonts. Does anyone know how to insert Unicode character sets into Framemaker?

4. Does anyone know where to find tables that cross-reference Unicode to ANSI code?

Thanks in advance,
