Example (nonsense, just to illustrate):
Code:

01⬩LBL 01
02 10
03 ARCL X
04 ꜔" OK"
05⬩LBL 02
06 GTO 01

The only problem is that Unicode is so vast that no "Unicode" font supports ALL Unicode characters. So one has to find a suitable font which contains these characters and then make sure that it is installed on the machine where the web page is to be displayed. See, e.g., the diamond symbol in front of the LBL, which did not show up on my Windows 7 machine in Internet Explorer.

I believe there are ways to embed a font in HTML pages so that it is downloaded, but I am not sure.

For PDF documents etc. I prefer to install and use a specific font, e.g. one of the Luiz Vierira Fonts. Or the attached modified DejaVu Monospaced font.
