Looks good here in the forum. Should look good on a reader using ADE.
Dang. I was fooled by the Calibre viewer and forgot to test in ADE. Unfortunately, in ADE, both marks display as question marks. That's no good.

In Kindle for PC, the sun mark displays as a square box, but the star displays as a star.

Is there any way to massage the encoding in Calibre to affect the way the marks will display?
