For HTML output, use encoding UTF-8; for PDF you will need to set the
font-family of the container to the name of the font you are embedding
(e.g., <fo:block font-family="foo">†</fo:block>) and use the numeric
character reference for it; see the FOP docs about embedding fonts.
Also, there is a list of Acrobat supported glyphs at
http://www.w3.org/Style/XSL/TestSuite/contrib/FOP/fonts.pdf.

I am using FOP 0.20.3
I do see the dagger symbol (†) in the xml file (using nodepad). Once I
apply the syle sheet † becomes ⤢, and in PDF † is #. I realize that † is
not present in iso-8859-1. There are other characters I am using are in
iso-8859-1(such as ± ).
How can I make this happen?
Thanks

Probably font your fo processor uses to output that chracter doesn't
have such glyph. Which fo processor are you using and which font?
