( I doubt if Leslie Lamport knew about Unicode when he
originated LaTeX.   :-) )

Tex4ht, which runs using latex, will generate

     <p class="noindent" ><span 
        class="tcrm-1000">&#x2212;</span>, <span 
        class="tcrm-1000">&#xF739;</span>, <span 
        class="tcrm-1000">&#x2126;</span>, <span 
        class="tcrm-1000">&#x00BD;</span>, <span 
        class="tcrm-1000">&#xF731;</span>.</p>

(This, no doubt, required the authors of tex4ht to look up
these codepoints.)
