OS X: problème d’affichage de la police Symbol
Suite à un problème d’affichage sous OS X du bout de HTML suivant:
<font face="Symbol"><strong>W</strong></font> (omega)
je suis tombé sur l’explication suivante:
Our HTML Help contains many mathematical and Greek symbols, describing statistical formulas. In the past, these were encoded using the Symbol font. This worked well on Windows, Mac OS 9, and Mac OS X up until Jaguar.
In Mac OS X 10.2 and later, the HTML Viewer engine does not honor the request to display the Symbol font data. (Or maybe it does, but the Symbol font is in Unicode now.) It was recommended that we switch over to using HTML Entities for these symbols. That is, rather than coding %lt;font face=”Symbol”>p</font> we instead code the named HTML entity.
