If you're wondering what Unicode characters to use for each IPA symbol,
that's listed in the Handbook of the International Phonetic Association:
http://uk.cambridge.org/order/WebBook.asp?ISBN=0521637511.
This following isn't exactly what you've asked for, but it may give you
the info that you need -- it's the best I can offer in a hurry. It's taken
from the release notes for the IPA font we're just about to release --
once we have someone free to update the web pages. (This was copied out of
a PDF doc and simply pasted into my mail client, and the formatting hasn't
survived.) Note that this font is designed to support IPA (rev. 1996) as
well as MS codepage 1252.
