4. Typed: paste ⥕ in a UTF-8 document, or pair it with a label like To bar ⥕.
Pitfalls & Tips
Common mistakes when working with Down Harpoon With Barb Right To Bar.
To vs from
Not ⥝
⥝ is from-bar (U+295D). ⥕ is to-bar (U+2955).
⇂
Not ⇂
⇂ is the plain down harpoon with barb right (U+21C2) — no bar attachment.
Name
Prefer the named form
HTML5 provides ⥕. Prefer it over numeric codes when you can.
CSS vs HTML
Do not mix escapes
\2955 belongs in CSS strings. ⥕ / ⥕ belong in HTML.
Fonts
Math font coverage
Some fonts omit Supplemental Arrows-B glyphs. Prefer a font with solid math/arrow coverage.

Add accessible text
A lone harpoon-to-bar can be unclear to screen readers. Pair it with visible text or an aria-label.
Semicolon
End references
Always finish entities with ; — write ⥕, not &RightDownVectorBar.
