  Hello

  How can I insert a special character from the Symbol font in the html editor?
  Specifically the character ” in Symbol, which is unicode 8704 or “forall”.
  No matter what I try the character gets deleted or appears as a question mark or as a square.
  Something like:
  <font face="Symbol"> &quot; </font>
  does not work.

  Thanks

  Best would be to use html entities. Have a look here: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_symbols.asp

  I tried that… both ∀ and ∀ display as a question mark.

  Could it be a local issue? :-o
  I’m using Firefox on Windows 98…
