Hmm, it's all Double-Dutch to me :)

Hmm. I don't use Preview, but I just checked it & lo! it appears the same 
as in the reply window where I am typing. I shall have to describe it, 
however, as I notice it goes out as a bunch of question marks...

So, I get (all in caps):

AAAAA (with right-facing thing on top, a hat, a "thing" (looks a bit like 
an umlaut(sp?) only bolder), an umlaut, another "thing")
The AE character
The french C with a squiggle underneath
EEEE (with left facing thing on top, then right facing, then hat, then umlaut
IIII (as above)
D with a horizontal bar through the left-hand vertical
N with a "thing" above (see "A"s above)
OOOO with right-facing, hat, "thing" and umlaut
X, only very small and centered vertically
0 with a top-right to bottom-left slash through it (like a QL zero)
U with a left-facing thing.

So, is that right? I thought Greek had sigma, pi, ohms (OK, that's not what 
they're called, but is what they're used for in maths/electronics) 
characters in it?

Hey ho. It's like Japanese, only different... :)
