	Unicode HOWTO
		Unicode code points 0-255 are identical to the Latin-1 values, so converting to this encoding simply requires converting code points to byte values; if a code point larger than 255 is encountered, the string can't be encoded into Latin-1.
		Unicode and ISO 10646 were originally separate efforts, but the specifications were merged with the 1.1 revision of Unicode.
		Unicode character U+FEFF is used as a byte-order mark (BOM), and is often written as the first character of a file in order to assist with autodetection of the file's byte ordering.

	UAX #24: Script Names
		Unicode script values are therefore mapped to their equivalents in the registry of script identifiers defined by ISO 15924 [ISO15924].
		This document specifies an assignment of script names to all Unicode code points.
		This facilitates the use of these script values for common tasks such as regular expressions, but means that some characters that are definite members of a given script by their graphology nevertheless are assigned one of the generic values.

	International Phonetic Alphabet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The letters chosen for the IPA are generally drawn from the Latin and Greek alphabets, or are modifications of Latin or Greek letters.
		To properly view IPA symbols in Internet Explorer for Windows, you must set your browser font to a typeface that includes the IPA extensions, such as Lucida Sans Unicode (which comes with Windows XP), Gentium (which is freely available), Doulos (SIL) (same source, SIL), or Arial Unicode MS (which comes with Microsoft Office).
		Unicode version 4.1 does not encode these, though subsequent versions will.

	ASPN : Python Cookbook : Encoding Unicode data for XML and HTML
		When the Unicode data contains characters that are outside of the given encoding (for example, accented characters and most symbols are not encodable in ASCII, and the "infinity" symbol is not encodable in Latin-1), these encodings cannot handle the data on their own.
		It is very useful when encoding Unicode data for HTML and other XML applications with limited (but popular) encodings like ASCII or ISO-Latin-1.
		Unicode data must be encoded before being printed or written out to a file.

	UTF-8 Encoding / Netscape & Internet Explorer
		The line of text which is supposed to be from Lucida Sans Unicode is using Code2000 for Armenian, MS Song for Chinese, Tahoma for Thai, Code2000 for Hiragana, and is mixing typefaces for the Latin even though Lucida Sans has all but one of the Latin characters in its repertoire.
		What this means is that the (IE 5.0) user cannot compare the performance of two different Unicode fonts on a multilingual page without getting a misleading picture of the fonts' character repertoire.
		On my system, because of the UTF-8 tag, the Chinese glyphs appear identical for Code2000, Bitstream Cyberbit, MS Song, Tahoma, Lucida Sans Unicode, and Times New Roman.

	Æ - Unipedia
		For computers, when using the Latin-1 or Unicode sets, the codes for 'Æ' and 'æ' are respectively 0198 and 0230 (holding down the ALT key whilst typing in 0198 on the number pad will produce the character on Windows systems and holding down the option or alt key (⌥) whilst typing an apostrophe (
		Both classical and modern practice is to write the letters separately, but the ligature was used in medieval and early modern writings, in part because "Æ" was reduced to a simple long vowel (IPA Template:IPA) in late Latin.
		The symbol Template:IPA is also used in the International Phonetic Alphabet to denote the sound of the Old English letter, a near-open front unrounded vowel, as in the modern English word cat.

		Among the Unicode character sets in use currently are Arabic, Chinese, Extended Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Tibetan, Runic and Sanskrit.
		Unicode is a multi-byte alphabet which can represent all major world scripts, and many obscure ones as well.
		There is also a page about font issues regarding the Unicode Hebrew Bible at sacred-texts which includes a specialized redistributable font.

	Greek /h/
		The family of scripts conflated in Unicode as Old Italic took on the Western Greek alphabetic values, as well as their lack of uniform letter shapes; the same word would be spelled in Old Italic (Astral Planes alert) something like 𐌇𐌄𐌋𐌋𐌄𐌍.
		The behaviour of Latin heta is fully that of Latin H: it is typographically equivalent, it has the same casing behaviour, the same semantics, and conflating the two is both practical and the best way to forestall confusion between identical characters cloned across scripts.
		So while in lowercase Latin heta is unproblematic, in uppercase it joins the other instances of Latin-Greek capital ambiguity where one is likelier to see the uppercase glyph avoided entirely.

		Finally, note that positions 127-159 are not displayable characters in ISO 8859-1 Latin 1, and are not part of any HTML standard, so that HTML code such as "and#153;" is incorrect, and will be displayed differently in browsers on different platforms (probably often in ways that you did not intend).
		If the characters in the right column don't match their descriptions, then your browser is translating incorrectly between ISO 8859-1 Latin 1 and your platform's native character set.

	Editorial: Implementing the Unicode Standard for Encoding Character Sets
		Given a word written in a non-Latin script, it is indeed possible to use a transliteration scheme to provide a unique representation, called a transliteration, for that word in the Latin script.
		The problem of allowing Latin characters with diacritical marks in a search string is likely to be the more tractable of the two problems; it is hoped that this will be solved within the next several months, as we move to a more powerful production system.
		But, for the convenience of users who are familiar with the non-Latin script in question, recording the word as given in the original script allows the user a more familiar and direct representation of the word.

	Unicode Characters
		On this page are the Latin characters that are part of the current Unicode schema.
		It incorporates characters from alphabets, syllabaries, and calligraphic writings systems – both the common (Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) and the obscure (Deseret, Ogham, Linear B, Khmer, Tagbanwa, etc.).
		The Unicode font map is designed to cover the overwhelming majority of characters that are needed for any sort of publication.

	Latin-1 Supplement - Test for Unicode support in Web browsers
		This happens because the characters for these non-Latin scripts are coded to the same numbers as the accented Latin characters in the ANSI character set; this problem will be resolved when Unicode becomes more widely used, because it provides a unique numeric identifier for each character.
		If you are using a version of Windows that supports a non-Latin alphabet such as Arabic, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew or Thai, then characters from these scripts may replace some of those in the 128-255 range.
		The entries in the “Entity” column are character entity references that can be used in HTML pages.

	ISO-8859-1 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		ISO-8859-1 is unique among these maps in that its coded characters are equivalent to the first 256 code points of Unicode.
		For example, ISO/IEC 8859-10 (Latin alphabet no. 6) is very similar to character map ISO-8859-10.
		The ISO-8859-x maps each add the ISO 646 C0 "control" characters from 00-1F, a control character at 7F, and control characters in the 80-9F range, thus encompassing a total of 256 characters.

	IPA Unicode Chart
		Because Unicode is a relatively new standard, some symbols may be viewable on the most recent browsers, such as Netscape 6 or Internet Explorer for Windows.
		NOTE: Some codes are selected for ease presentation and may not necessarily be the correct "Unicode entities." Also some items may be listed twice depending on their shapes.
		Most browsers, including Netscape 4.7 for the Mac, do recognize common HTML entity codes from the Latin 1 character set as well as superscript, subscript and strike through tags.
