RE: special characters - Unicode
An alternative would be to format the item label as Symbol and to assign it the value #183; : fo:list-item fo:list-item-label fo:block start-indent=0.0mm fo:inline font-family=Symbol#183;/fo:inline /fo:block /fo:list-item-label fo:list-item-body fo:block start-indent=7.5mm fo:inline xsl:apply-templates/ /fo:inline /fo:block /fo:list-item-body /fo:list-item Q u e s t i o n : I tried Vladimir's solution and, of course, it works. I tried other Unicode value, but I got always # as a result. Does anybody know of any restrictions to Unicode in FOP?

RE: special characters - Unicode
I had the same problem until I figured out what I was doing wrong. I'm guessing that you're looking up the Unicode values of special characters and then displaying them. The problem (that I had at least) was that if you're not careful you might use the wrong expression. As you might already know you can use either #; or #x; the difference being that in the second expression ??? is a hexadecimal value as opposed to the decimal value used by the first expression. When I started playing around with the special characters I tried using the second expression with decimal Unicode values for characters and not surprisingly I always got a # back. I'm not sure if this is the same problem that you have.

Jetzt habe ich ihn verstanden: Es könnte sein, wir lesen aus einer Tabelle dezimale Unicode-Werte aus und stellen sie in FO als hexadezimale Werte dar. Kann das sein? Mit freundlichen Grüßen Dott.
