I get confused about what Rev thinks "language" means.  In the unicode 
conversion names it seems to mean encoding scheme.  Since this is 
pseudo-html, this may mean something else, but might mean encoding 
scheme.  The codes are too high for any 8-bit encoding.

One of the things I kept forgetting to do was set the "language" in the 
font property.
