Well, the character is available in the character tool (it's under General Punctuation). I discovered that it does, in fact, insert it. I can see it if I copy the string into notepad. And it works when I produce the PDFs :) Since I know this character renders correctly, I'm going to use it.
Thanks as always Hussein, for your help. You are no small part of why I recommended XMLMind to my new company.

Any zero width character should do. Therefore, please try to use any of the following characters (rendered on screen by XMLmind XML Editor because they are needed to author MathML equations): 0x2061 (⁡) Ox2062 (⁢) Ox2063 (⁣) and tell me if it works when you convert your documents to PDF.
