Thank you, this approach works. There is something strange however. In:
<text>∗ = asteriskmath symbol, √ radical symbol and ∝
proportional symbol</text>
only the asteriskmath and the proportional symbols are printed but NOT the
radical symbol.
The symbol entry in fonts.xml looks like:
<font name="Symbol"
afm="Symbol.afm"
embed="false"/>
The stylesheet is using: <xsl:attribute name="font-family">'Times Roman',
Symbol, 'Zapf Dingbats'</xsl:attribute>
Any idea?

We still working with ascii encoding for some reasons (CMS and tooling).
