Of course you have to use a font in TeXworks that contains Plane 1 characters in order to see them; I use Code2001, which is freely available, in both the editing window and output.

Howdy,

I'm seeing the characters in the Editor just fine using Monaco or Menlo as the font on my Mac. I'm guessing the font you're using in your Editor just doesn't have those characters.

Good Luck,
