Ups, I have only few hours to start final render and I realised thet I 
still dont' know how to use utf-8 encoding with is neede in some parts of 
my scene.

I.e. I want to pust a character that has UNICODE number i.e. 2345 (it's a 
vertical line crosed by left-horizontal arrow symbol).

What should I write ?


 global_settings { charset utf8 } 

 text { ttf "verdana.ttf" "2345" 1,0 }

doesn't work

-- 
#macro g(U,V)(.4*abs(sin(9*sqrt(pow(x-U,2)+pow(y-V,2))))*pow(1-min(1,(sqrt(
pow(x-U,2)+pow(y-V,2))*.3)),2)+.9)#end#macro p(c)#if(c>1)#local l=mod(c,100
);g(2*div(l,10)-8,2*mod(l,10)-8)*p(div(c,100))#else 1#end#end light_source{
y 2}sphere{z*20 9pigment{function{p(26252423)*p(36455644)*p(66656463)}}}//M

"\u2345"

As explained in "6.2.7.2  Text Formatting" of the documentation.

However, that character looked like a "y" to me...

Thanks :)

Now i'm using cyberbit.ttf - it has most glyphs from all categories, I can 
email it if someone is interested, and it's easy to find in googles afair.

I had to find some Cyrillic fonts to get this to work. Then I had to use a
display option under Windows to map my keyboard to the correct character. It
was several steps, actually.
