Example 454. Example
<p>Numeric character references represent characters from the Universal
Character Set (UCS) of Unicode. They are used to reference characters that
cannot easily be directly encoded in a document, such as a copyright
symbol. When a markup-aware processor encounters a numeric character
reference, for example, <numcharref>225</numcharref>, it renders the
reference as the Unicode character that it represents: a-acute.</p>
