When 'true', characters like ampersands and accented characters are converted into HTML entities, i.e. '&' becomes '&'.

v2.4.0 added the degree symbol to the characters turned into entities. Swiss, French and German quote styles are automatically detected and 'entified' without needing to resort to this setting.

From v2.5.0, ^getFor^ and ^get^ (and other export markup elements) check this attribute before encoding values.

From v 3.0.0, English typographic quotation marks “ ” and ‘ ’ are now exported at HTML entities rather than straight quotes

From v3.6.2, the symbol € is exported at € . It was formerly exported as ¤ (its former value).

From v4.5.2, several new symbols are added. Δ is exported as Δ, δ as δ, μ as μ and ∑ as ∑
