MarcEdit’s mnemonic format requires the use of mnemonic values to stand-in for all extended latinate/non-Latinate characters. The tool provides a number of hints related to supported diacritic codes, selecting the correct code, etc. The list below documents the current set of supported named diacritic mnemonics. Please note, any value not named can be referenced by using {HexCode}.
** Note — all mnemonic values should be enclosed in brackets, i.e.: {aacute}. Also, when possible, the display value has been provided, though it may not print in all cases.
