Dear fellow subscribers,

The element reference manual entry for <private-char> state that "This Suite
has been designed [to support] ...the use of entities defined by the STIX
project (http://www.ams.org/STIX/)", but there is no example to illustrate the
use of a STIX character. Each STIX character has a Private Use Area (PUA) code
point... for example that for "Chemistry: converging bond" is &E0D1;. So, is
it correct to say that one can simply use the STIX code points in this way in
an NLM file (i.e. there is no need to use <private-char> combined with glyph
images)?

Many thanks - Simon.
