Suppose that one wishes to produce a chess diagram in a Unicode compliant
manner in a document produced using Word 97 running on either a Windows 95
platform or a Windows 98 platform, with a view also to save the document as
plain text. One way to do that would be to use a chess fount which is
mapped to my collection of code points for a chess fount. I would be
interested to know of how, if at all, that could be done in a document
produced using Word 97 running on either a Windows 95 platform or a Windows
98 platform using regular Unicode or XML.
