It's not quite what you suppose. Best thing for you to do may be to try
it out for yourself and see how JAWS handles it. Windows now uses
Unicode values for characters. It previously used ANSI, which JAWS still
has. before that, its predecessors used ASCII.
Displays a character set you can use to copy characters and
paste them into a document. To display an enlarged view of
the character, click the character. To copy a character,
double-click the character. The status line at the bottom of the
screen displays the Unicode equivalent and character name. It
also displays the keyboard equivalent if available for this
character.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] AASCI Codes
I was wondering about something. When you are in the Character Map
aspect of the system tools, and you put in a certain code for a certain
character, will JAWS read what the character is? I know that it
probably will depend on which version of JAWS you have and which
Operating system you have. But for the sake of the discussion, as in
my case, I am using JAWS version 11 and Vista 32 bit system. Many
thanks. Jerry
