The Windows 95 "TM" character occurs in a place where Unicode has no
characters, hence Java will not display it; the Unicode TM symbol is
located elsewhere.

Looking at the Unicode lists that ship with the HTML 4.0 specs, the
trademark symbol is at character position 8482, which you can use
directly:

char tm = (char) 8482;

However, you need to configure fonts.properties so that it can find a
glyph for it (your \231, for instance).
