"Exotic" Characters in Screen readers

Kind of esoteric, but if you have a visually impaired student in a technical course (e.g. math, foreign language or other course), the default setting of JAWS usually can't recognize "exotic" characters like (∀,∃,≡...). Fortunately, as of Jaws 6.1, you can tweak the .sbl file so that JAWS can match a Unicode character point with a text (e.g. ∀ will become U+2200=For all in the .sbl file).
