No symbol fonts seem to work when set via CSS. All other fonts seem to handle this correctly. <font face="Verdana">1234567890</font> <span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">1234567890</span> This works correctly (assuming Verdana is on the client system). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Cut n paste the two examples into an HTML file 2. View that file
