    FAQ:

    Q: What Unicode symbols are available?

    A: In order of Unicode codepoint: ¬·×ΓΔΘΛΞΠΣΦΨΩαβγδεζηθικλμνξπρστυφχψωℓ∀∃∅∞∧∨⊒⊕⊗⟨⟩⟪⟫〚〛⇒⊢†…₀₁₂₃₄₅₆₇₈₉↦∈∩∪⋮⋯⋰⋱≠≤≥⊆⊥⋯✓∗

    Q: How do I find the Unicode symbol for a LaTeX macro?

    A: Try rendering the LaTeX to HTML using MathJax: https://www.mathjax.org/#modal-livedemo . You can probably copy/paste from that.

    Q: How can I find the hex for a Unicode symbol, or reversely?

    A: In Python3, type something like `hex(ord('¬'))` or `chr(0x00AC)`.

    Q: Why does LaTeX complain about a missing `\begin{document}` after `\DeclareUnicodeCharacter`?

    A: Because [you must write hexadecimal numbers in all-uppercase](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/248640/missing-begindocument-after-declareunicodecharacter).
