Inkscape should handle all of UTF-8[0]. You enter it the same way as for any other GTK2 app -- hold down double-bucky-cokebottle

What is double-bucky-cokebottle?

and type the hex code.

I haven't tried but this may work. (Ctrl+U is our own Unicode thing, but we use standard GTK means for text input).

I find it easier to cut-and-paste from gucharmap.

That should work too.

[0] Of course, the PostScript export probably doesn't do UTF-8.

As far as I know PS does not support Unicode. So you'll need to convert text to paths on export.
