Back when I started this thread, I used a Unicode character in the Kindle book in order to solve the problem of the musical symbol in the Kindle version of the book (as per Doitsu's suggestion).
Today I was going through the Kindle Publishing Guidelines again and Amazon write: "Do NOT use Unicode format characters, as they may cause problems."
This, even though they also write: "The source of a Kindle book can be encoded in many different ways. All encodings are supported, provided that: The encoding of the HTML files is clearly stated in the HTML [and ] The computer used for compiling the sources supports the encoding and knows how to convert it to Unicode."
So if the encoding is Unicode, and when tested the Kindle devices and apps display Unicode characters, why would Amazon "forbid" Unicode characters?
What am I missing?
