    <thetext>From https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=233474

The text at bug URL uses a Windows-only trick to display mathematical symbols:

&lt;i&gt;A&lt;/i&gt; &lt;font face=&quot;symbol&quot;&gt;Ì&lt;/font&gt; &lt;i&gt;B&lt;/i&gt;

Where Ì is an 8-bit code for &quot;SUBSET OF&quot; in this font.

I&apos;m not sure if this problem deserves being fixed, but it is clearly a problem.</thetext>

    <thetext>A lot of MS-Word-exported html files have this problem as well:

They have :

&lt;font face=&quot;webdings&quot;&gt;abc 123&lt;/font&gt; : to get some dingbats   
&lt;font face=&quot;Symbol&quot;&gt;S&lt;/font&gt;  :  to get Greek Capital Sigma</thetext>
