Thanks for your suggestion, but I don't think that is it. When the charset is not specified, iSilo will let you specify it on the PDA itself. But no encoding option allows the correct display of these characters.

The page I pointed to is almost certainly Windows-1252. At least, other pages on that site specifies that encoding. But I have tried specifying that encoding, both in iSilo and in the ixl file for iSiloXC, to no avail. Also, there is no ISO-8859-1 encoding offered, neither for iSilo nor iSiloXC.

So there does not seem to be a way for iSilo 3.x/4.0 to display these character entities, at least with their "native" formats. Again, the old iSilo 2.x convertor converts these characters fine.
