I've been testing a number of "bullets" in Word's Segoe UI and Wingdings
fonts and for a lot of them, JAWS either reads some gibberish or nothing is
voiced.
I'm wondering if there's a list somewhere of accessible bullets.
I'm aware that JAWS goes by unicode, but Word doesn't have a place to input
unicode that I know of.

Helps if I include the link to the post on bullet voicings and the PDF download.
