I believe you are wrong, here is a table of CCSID 37 characters ...

The trademark symbol is just the letters TM, usually in a superscript,
right? There's no circle around it, such as on copyright and

symbols. But the trademark symbol is not in CCSID 37. Maybe another

font,

eh? Or it's very likely UTF-8 (CCSID 1208) - It might be U2122.

Normally Unicode code points are expressed with a plus sign, so
U+2122. But yes, that's the right code point for the trademark symbol.

By "another font" I assume you mean keep using CCSID 37, and use the
characters 'T' and 'M', but render them in a small font and/or make
them superscript?

That's definitely the mindset typists and typesetters needed when
their tools did not directly support the characters they were looking
for. (Relatively early typewriters economized by not having separate
numeral '1' and lowercase 'L'.)

But today, on modern computers, I would hope that you can just choose
a proper encoding (like UTF-8) and store the character
straightforwardly in that encoding. (I know, ivory tower concepts
don't always apply in the trenches.)
