By UTF, do you mean UTF-8? If so, you can do this more easily by using -b utf-8 option on the command line and then doing (element ALEF (literal "\U-2135;")) If you have an entity set that declares alef like this <!entity alef CDATA "ℵ" -- 0x2135 is 8501 --> and the SGML declaration for your DSSSL style sheet is Unicode, then you can reference the entity set in your style sheet and just do: (element ALEF (literal "&alef;")) But since Jade knows about alef, you can just use the Unicode name directly without the entity set: (element ALEF (literal "\alef-symbol;")) James DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
