AskKey Pro is an advanced version of AskKey.  AskKey Pro gives users access to ASCII values, HTML values and Unicode symbols.  Users have access to more than 2,000 Unicode symbols, which can be exported as graphics.  Or edit it as styled text.

Whether you treat Unicode symbols as styled text or graphics will be up to you.

AskKey Pro will let you export the selected Unicode symbol with an imported background image.  Choose Export or Export to Preview under the File menu to save the selected Unicode symbol as an image file (BMP, JPEG, PNG).

Why would anyone need AskKey Pro for Unicode symbols?  Isn't it just the matter of using TextEdit and choosing Special Characters under the Edit menu?  Yes and no.  TextEdit is a very useful application that comes with Mac OS.  It's true that AskKey Pro doesn't covers all Unicode symbols under Sym2 (Sym1 will give you access to any 4-character-length Unicode symbol.)  It is true that TextEdit will only show a corresponding Unicode value, which cannot be copied to the Clipboard.  AskKey Pro can return a corresponding Unicode value as text.  TextEdit doesn't give you an official label for a particular Unicode symbol while AskKey Pro does.  TextEdit treats a Unicode symbol as text while AskKey Pro can treat a symbol as text or graphics.
