+<para>A typical body or title font does not contain all
+the character glyphs that DocBook supports. This parameter
+specifies additional fonts that should be searched for
+special characters not in the normal font.
+These symbol font names are automatically appended
+to the body or title font family name when fonts
+are specified in a
+<tag class="attribute">font-family</tag>
+property in the FO output.
+</para>
+<para>The symbol font names should be entered as a
+comma-separated list. The default value is
+<literal>Symbol,ZapfDingbats</literal>.
