I am trying to use “Ⴒ” (Georgian capital "tar" U+10b2) and “ք” (Armenian "keh" U+0584) as special variable names in a document compiled with pdflatex on Overleaf. The document is 100% English. I chose those characters because they look like the superimposition of “P” + “L” → “Ⴒ”, and “p” + “f” → “ք”
I got the “ք” (Armenian) working with this [1]. Is there a similarly simple way to produce “Ⴒ” (Georgian)?
From what I've read [2, 3, 4], I think the problem is due to a lack of a native TeX font that supports Georgian. Those solutions appear to work for XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX, because they are able to use TTF fonts. I don't understand any of this well, so I may be mistaken. Adding usepackage[georgian]babel caused undecipherable error messages.
This seems like a ridiculous amount of reading and digging to insert two standard unicode characters. Isn't there a simpler way?

Yes, it works for the Armenian, but not by using UNICODE. Rather it works by allocating one of the 256 standard slots to the glyph, by way of the OT6 encoding. There may be something similar for the Georgian letter, but it will not involve UNICODE. UNICODE operates by using 2 bytes to encode glyphs, which is fundamentally a different process.

The shape of the “uppercase” tar is quite variable; actually, the Georgian alphabet has no distinction of uppercase and lowercase; the common alphabet is mxedruli (only lowercase); for emphasis, Asomtavruli can be used. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgian_scripts

@StevenB.Segletes I wouldn't quite say you can't use Unicode with pdfTeX. Though less convenient than XeTeX/LuaTeX, one can input UTF-8 withusepackage[utf8]inputenc, and obtain specific Unicode output by defining what TeX should do with that input. (See for example this answer or this one.) Also, nitpicking, but Unicode doesn't use 2 bytes to encode glyphs; Unicode only assigns codepoints in range 0–10FFFF to (roughly) abstract characters (encoded as 1–4 bytes with UTF-8) and glyphs are left to fonts.

For completeness, there is a Georgian font package for pdflatex, see https://www.ctan.org/pkg/mxedruli. The Tar character is part of the Xucuri set, which can be accessed with usepackagexucuri. The input is a set of ascii-based character combinations, with Ⴒ made by .T. Note that the character looks a bit different, like the difference between a serif and a sans serif font (although I don't know anything about Georgian, so maybe the difference is caused by something else entirely).

I don't believe you can use UNICODE with pdflatex.

@StevenB.Segletes It works for Armenian (as shown). I've also tested Japanese and Russian with pdflatex.

Yes, it works for the Armenian, but not by using UNICODE. Rather it works by allocating one of the 256 standard slots to the glyph, by way of the OT6 encoding. There may be something similar for the Georgian letter, but it will not involve UNICODE. UNICODE operates by using 2 bytes to encode glyphs, which is fundamentally a different process.

The shape of the “uppercase” tar is quite variable; actually, the Georgian alphabet has no distinction of uppercase and lowercase; the common alphabet is mxedruli (only lowercase); for emphasis, Asomtavruli can be used. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgian_scripts

@StevenB.Segletes I wouldn't quite say you can't use Unicode with pdfTeX. Though less convenient than XeTeX/LuaTeX, one can input UTF-8 with
usepackage[utf8]inputenc, and obtain specific Unicode output by defining what TeX should do with that input. (See for example this answer or this one.) Also, nitpicking, but Unicode doesn't use 2 bytes to encode glyphs; Unicode only assigns codepoints in range 0–10FFFF to (roughly) abstract characters (encoded as 1–4 bytes with UTF-8) and glyphs are left to fonts.– ShreevatsaR
