Adding dingmats or symbols into a parts list field

Adding dingmats or symbols into a parts list field

(OP)
Hello,

We are looking for suggestions in being able to symbols description field in a parts list of an assembly.

The "Parts list" is pulling the description from the parts file. The description is a parameter. We create the description.

Present condition:
example: HOUSING

We want to be able to add a dingbat or symbol wrapped in a triangle or octagon afterword to act as a superscript but provide a greater visual than simply a number or letter raised up.

Desired condition:
example: HOUSING /3\

Thank you in advance for any insight.

Cheers
