Background information: In principle this Wiki supports most unicode characters, supporting many different languages and scripts. However, depending on the software installed on your local computer, some characters may not display on the screen or in print (you will usually see empty little boxes like one of the following: □ﭡ⌺ə). These characters remain valid information for others, even if you are editing the text in which they occur. Please do not delete characters not displaying on your screen from Wiki pages!

Under Windows you can typically prevent the display problem by installing the Microsoft font 'Arial Unicode MS'. This font covers the entire set of characters specified by the Unicode 2.1 standard (over 50.000 glyphs). Although the glyphs are of lower quality than usual, the file size is still 23MB. This font is included, e. g., with Microsoft Office 2000 and XP. It is not installed in default Office installation, but may later be installed by starting setup again.

HTML character entities: In certain situations it may be desirable to type html character entities directly rather than copying individual character from this page. Character entities start with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;):
