I actually did this on iOS recently. Incidentally, I scrapped the grouped map/button concept in favor of an HTML implementation (which, depending on your application, could be a good idea). But, if you're interested in using buttons and an image in a grouped implementation, I used two groups.

Hi Richmond, I think that Fontographer will show you the UTF8 values of the font values. You can take those values and convert them to binary using the binaryEncode function. Convert the binary value to UTF8. It is probably easier to use Mac OS X's Character Viewer. This palette will allowyou
