A part of me keeps thinking: use numeric entities. But I read once that older kindles have trouble with numeric entities--don't know how true this is? |
I suspect that Kindlegen will convert numeric entries into utf-8. But I haven't looked at the output to see. If you get hold of MobiUnpack.py you can test it yourself. (It's available here on mobileread somewhere.)
