Hi

1. special characters: arrow up etc

In the DocBook source, I have

   instead of ↑

and in the FO, there is

   instead of ?

which is all peachy.
(... if the above code snippets weren't garbled by the mail agents and 
servers)

But in the PDF generated by XEP, the arrow does not appear:

My browsers display the arrow just fine (in the XHTML version), which 
means that I have at least one font which has the required glyph.
In fact, all arrows at
http://www.pinkjuice.com/characters/?range_start=8592&range_stop=8595
are displayed.
I'd be happy if XEP would automatically find these fonts/glyphs, just as 
the browsers do.

2. line height

When there is superscript stuff, eg for footnotes, I get uneven line 
heights:

Is this an issue of XEP or should it be resolved by changing the FO 
generation?

TIA,

Tobi
