I too downloaded the font - no problems - quite a nice font, however, I do
have a question about using it.

I'm familiar with the usual way to enter a "foreign" character when you're
typing a text; typically it's an ALT + a four digit number on the numerical
keypad (æ - for example would be ALT + 0230).

How do the Unicode fonts work??!! If you bring up the character map it'll
give you the "code" (like the ALT + XXXX), but these are different - is
there a way to enter them easily like the ALT + method, or do you just have
to copy the characters you want and paste them?

Many Thanks,
