title: Referencing symbols of a font that don't have a unicode in c#
body: <p>I'm trying to use an Icon Font inside a Xamarin application. It is actually quite straight forward and i got the font to work.
  However it works fine with using Unicode to reference the symols, like this:</p>
  <pre><code>Label iconLabel = new Label
  {
     Text = &quot;\u0078&quot;
  };
  </code></pre>
  <p>But i discovered that only a few symbols of this font have a unicode assigned, the other symbols only have a name. That icon font is usually supposed to be used in html where these symbols can be referenced by the name.</p>
  <p>If i try to do this in C#: <code>Text = &quot;arrow_down&quot;</code> it won't work, as it only displays the plain text.</p>
  <p>Is there a way this could work with the names of the symbols or maybe a way to automatically add unicodes to every symbol in this font?</p>
