72.18 HTML Font Setup

The HTML pages of the manual use the symbol font to display non-latin symbols in mathematical formulae. This font might not be enabled by default on your browser. The section on Browser Problems in the documentation of the tth converter http://hutchinson.belmont.ma.us/tth/manual.cgi describes some common problems and their solution.

In particular, it suggests the following quick way to achieve a proper setup for Netscape 4 under X-Windows: Add the following line to your .Xdefaults (or .Xresources) file:

Netscape*documentFonts.charset*adobe-fontspecific:   iso-8859-1
and call
xrdb .Xdefaults
(or restart the X server) to make it read the file. Once netscape is restarted the fonts should be rendered properly.
