I took a quick peek--looks like a good quick reference. I didn't see an explanation of what information is given by repeating an entry, in parentheses, with different styling, and showing superscripts for the footnotes.
What does the repeat-in-parentheses mean?

For excellent example, in the Symbol line the first two show up literally as symbols in WinIE--like
Greek characters--but in WinFF I see "Symbol" four times: [Symbol, Symbol (Symbol^2 , Symbol^4 )].
Same for Wing/Webdings/Dingbats, I see funny characters in WinIE but not in WinFF. So the
parens are to show the name of the font in case it shows up funny on your browser. ;o)
ciao, Zulema
