&gt; I ran into this as well. There is a DSSSL setting that needs

&gt; resolved the issue for me) :
&gt;

&gt; &quot;UNREGISTERED::James Clark//Characteristic::preserve-sdata?&quot;
&gt; #f)
That worked, thanks. Question: in trying to fix this, I discovered that
sgmltools made absolutely no objection if I just replaced the &amp;ldquo with &quot;
wherever it occured. Doing that, it seems to me, would avoid the problem no
matter what someone's local setting for the above variable. I have a hunch
it would be bad practice though. Right?
And I still can't get the Postscript output to like &amp;tilde.
