I'm using XML DocBook 5.0 with Xalan (+ FOP) to create HTML (and PDF)
output.
I'm sorry, I think chose the wrong word by using "implementation".
All I want to see as a result is a mathematical symbol within my output.
I've seen in your (really good) "DocBook Definition Guide" at ...
http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/appb.html#xml-sdata
... a example: it puts the trade sign into document.
Some kind of:
... <!ENTITY trade "™"> ] <book> ... ™ ...
... has to be within the DOCTYPE def.
This example works fine,
... but it does not with
<!ENTITY nsube "⊈">
The nsube Symbol is defined at
http://docbook.org/tdg/en/html/iso-amsn.html
So, what do I have to do to make my "Neither a subset of nor equal to" -sign
visible in the output?
I guess I have to use the ...
"ISO 8879:1986//ENTITIES Added Math Symbols: Negated Relations//EN//XML"
Identifier. But how?
Thank you very much for your help.
Chris
