You can enter the Unicode characters by name in your DSSSL stylesheet.
Use #\left-angle-bracket to denote the character, or use
"\left-angle-bracket;" when using the character in a string.  See
section 8.5.8 of the DSSSL standard or see the Core Expression
Language tutorial at
"http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dsssldoc/tutorials/core-exp";.
