Re: Um...help with unicode?

OK, now I have a question:  In the Font Creator Program I recently
installed, there is a long list of (MS) Unicode stuff, in Hex format
(decimal is available too I think) such as, among others...(I quote):

$01AC Latin Cap. I with tilde
$01AE Latin Cap. I with macron
.....
$01B6 and $01B7 Latin Cap/Small k with cedilla
....
$01F1 - $022B most of the Greek Alphabet
$011C on, some of the Cyrillic alphabet.

(Very last) $028C Small Greek letter pi
Unquote
(I take it 028C = 268 in base ten??)
It strikes me that many of these correspond to characters already available
on my Win98/WP8 machine in the various Special Characters options,
Multinational fonts etc.  So I'm wondering, if I used these code nos. in a
web document, would they show up as advertised?  Presumably that "$" has to
be replaced with "&", but anything else? (Obviously I haven't tried it yet.
These things scare me)
