I followed your recipe and the result looks very promising (see second 
attachment). I'm not sure if all the codes should generate displayable 
characters, but the ones that I know from Latin-2 (ISO-8859-2) are sure 
in there. On XP I'm using a german keyboard and I switch to a serbian 
keyboardscheme whenever I need to enter Latin-2 characters. Entering ć 
(0107) in that way inside the MultiArial string results in a ae ligature 
character (see first attachment).  This usually only happens with other 
applications when I try to enter a Latin-2 character while they are 
using Latin-1.
A character (Cut from) & (Paste into) the MultiArial string results in a 
DNU SmallInteger>>asciiValue.

Anyhow, it's fun to get an impression of how it will be like!
