Open the Character Map (In XP : Start Menu -> All Programs ->
Accessories -> System Tools -> Character Map). With Arial font selected,
scroll down until you find the characters you want. Copy them and
CTRL+SHIFT+V in the text in Dia!

Now, in the 0.96 I'm running there appears to be a small problem - if
you put the characters (as described above) in an text object, it
doesn't seem to work. However, if you create a text object in the
diagram, deselect it (i.e. click elsewhere in the diagram), and then
edit it, then you can paste the characters and it will work.

Hope this works for you.

Rob.
