I also recommend the Varitype FontWizard DA to see what the hex or decimal code
for a given character in any font is.  This DA gives a lot of interesting info
on the fonts you have installed, and seems able to extract the info from any
font I have tried out (about 78 so far).  This and the "quote" function in Word
4.0 (? command -shift -Q?) have helped delete a lot of little boxes in imported
documents, and have shown me what the little box was supposed to be.

The procedure is to hilite the little box, and use Word's command to display
the ascii code (ah, yes: command-option-Q) and the dewcimal code will appear in
the lower left corner of the screen.  Then use FontWizard to see what that code
should represent.  Good Luck.
