21.7.5 Managing font tags for symbol fonts

By default, Mif2Go inserts inner <font> tags when the source character format specifies the Symbol font, even when NoFonts=Yes. This is done to ensure that bullets from the Symbol font come out right. However, Mif2Go suppresses <font> tags for characters in the Symbol font (or in any of its brothers, such as Zapf Dingbats, Webdings, or Wingdings) that occur outside of autonumbers.

To preserve <font> tags when the source character format specifies a symbol font (even when you have explicitly set NoFonts=Yes):

[HTMLOptions]

; NoSymbolFont = Yes (default, prohibit <font...> tags even for symbol

;  fonts), or No (use <font...> tags for symbol fonts)

NoSymbolFont = No

When NoSymbolFont=Yes, Mif2Go maps non-autonumber symbols in your document to appropriate Unicode numeric character entities; see §21.6.6 Mapping characters in a special font.

If you set NoSymbolFont=No, one alternative is to keep the <font> tags, but omit the face attribute; see §21.7.6 Excluding face and size attributes from font tags.
