No, they are two different things, Greek capital Omega is U+03A9 and
Ohm Sign is U+2126.  They might not display the same, but as we agree
below, thats a font thing :)

You set the fonts in the dblatex or FOP toolchains. Asciidoc and the
docbook it produces are both content markup, not presentation markup,
and so don't contain font information.

The dblatex docs have never been clear to me how to do it, best I can
find is http://dblatex.sourceforge.net/doc/manual/xetex.font.html or
its latex style I think.
