The code value to use is not a fixed value: it isn't as simple as saying "use this code". You are probably not setting the Encoding for the font you use. This is a mistake, though you can get away with it for unaccented western European. In all other cases you should set a known Encoding. Then you will know what code to put in your strings. Alternatively, in level 2 and above, you can use glyphshow. There is absolutely no Unicode support: if you have been trying to find that, you will not get the information you need. Aandi Inston
