Displaying ASCII control code symbols

Is there a way to display the symbols in the ASCII control character positions 0 to 31 (decimal) ?

Try String.fromCharCode(). Beware that the built-in fonts do not necessarily have all of the standard characters.

Thanks but unfortunately it doesn't produce any printable symbols.

Try it with a character code that should work, just to verify the principle. If that works, then you can conclude that glyphs for the characters in which you're interested are not present in the font.

Yes, they are not present in the font - first character is 32 - space, but you can't see it ! lol

 

Interestingly "No Glyph" displays for characters 127-160 as well as 0-31.
