startquote dingbat

<dingbat key="startquote" text="{``}"/>

Standard English-language left “curly” quotes. Some authors may prefer to use single quotes.

endquote dingbat

<dingbat key="endquote" text="{''}"/>

Standard English-language right “curly” quotes. Some authors may prefer to use single quotes.

nestedstartquote dingbat

<dingbat key="nestedstartquote" text="{`}"/>

The same as singlestartquote. Some authors may prefer to use double quotes.

nestedendquote dingbat

<dingbat key="nestedendquote" text="{'}"/>

The same as singleendquote. Some authors may prefer to use double quotes.

singlestartquote dingbat

<dingbat key="singlestartquote" text="{`}"/>

Leading delimiter for URLs.

urlendquote dingbat

<dingbat key="urlendquote" text="{\textgreater}"/>

Trailing delimiter for URLs.

bullet dingbat

<dingbat key="bullet" text="\textbullet{}"/>

This key is not used directly by DB2LaTeX and might no longer be necessary (such decorations are normally provided by LaTeX and the babel package).

decimalpoint dingbat

<dingbat key="decimalpoint" text="."/>

This symbol is used in the typesetting of character-aligned tables. It is a character sequence, as occurring within DocBook source documents, at which alignment is to occur. The phrase “decimal point” is somewhat of a misnomer.

latexdecimal dingbat

<dingbat key="latexdecimal" text="."/>

This symbol is used in the typesetting of character-aligned tables. It is a LaTeX sequence to which the decimalpoint sequence should be converted during typesetting. In most cases, this is the same as decimalpoint.
