By default, H<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>V<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>A uses
the <CODE>FACE=symbol</CODE> attribute to the <CODE><FONT ...></CODE> tag.
This attribute is non-standard in HTML-3.2 and is now standard (and
already deprecated) in HTML-4.0 <BR>
<BR>
The symbol font is the one available on the Linux Red Hat
distribution and seems to be present on many Unix installations.
A good way to know whether your browser can show H<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>V<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>A symbols or
not is
comparing figure <A HREF="manual006.html#xfd">1</A> and the web page located at
<TT><A HREF="http://pauillac.inria.fr/~maranget/hevea//doc/symbol.html">symbol.html</A></TT>.<BR>
<BR>
<EM>Microsoft Explorer</EM> displays the symbol font by default.<BR>
<BR>
By default, <EM>Netscape Communicator</EM> does not display symbol fonts
as intended by H<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>V<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>A.
On an Unix system, the following procedure instructs
<EM>Netscape Communicator</EM> to do so:
<UL><LI>
Add the following line to your <TT>.Xdefaults</TT> file:
<PRE>
Netscape*documentFonts.charset*adobe-fontspecific: iso-8859-1
</PRE><LI>Issue a <CODE>xrdb .Xdefaults</CODE> command.
<LI>Restart <EM>Netscape</EM>.
<LI>Furthermore, be carefull to enable using document fonts
while disabling dynamic fonts : select the
Edit/Preference/Appearance/Fonts menu, and then check the appropriate
box, which should be something like "Use document-specified fonts".
</UL>
On a Macintosh,
choose <B>Western (Mac Roman)</B> in the item <B>Document Encoding</B>
from the <EM>Preferences</EM> menu. This will work only if the document
does not contain iso-latin1 characters above 127. That is, this will
work only with documents that are generated by H<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>V<FONT SIZE=2><sup>E</sup></FONT>A with the
<TT>-noiso</TT> option enabled (see section <A HREF="manual044.html#heveaoptions">C.1.1.4</A>).<BR>
<BR>
More details on browser configuration can be found at
<TT><A HREF="http://hutchinson.belmont.ma.us/tth/Xfonts.html">http://hutchinson.belmont.ma.us/tth/Xfonts.html</A></TT>
(A page from Ian Hutchinson's <TT>tth</TT> documentation).
In particular the <EM>Simple fix</EM> of the <TT>.Xdefaults</TT> file
above does not seem to work on <EM>Mozilla 4.78</EM>, and you should
rely on the more complicated fix described in the web page.<BR>
<BR>
More details on symbol fonts can be found
in section <A HREF="manual006.html#symbols">3.2.2</A> of this manual.
In particular, note that symbol fonts may be completely avoided with
the <CODE>-nosymb</CODE> option.<BR>
