<p>Without seeing your entire document, I can only guess.</p>
<p>But my suspicion is that you're only creating an HTML "snippet", not a<br>
complete document. To be complete, HTML requires the <code><!DOCTYPE html><html><head>...</code> portion. Without that your browser does not know<br>
what character encoding should be used.</p>
<p>The easiest way to do this in MMD is to add metadata at the top -- this<br>
forces a complete document, and allows you to set the title (which is<br>
technically required in HTML):</p>
<pre>
<code>Title: Some Title
Your text here</code>
</pre>
<p>You can also use the preferences to force a complete document without<br>
using metadata. (The command line has options for this as well.)</p>
<p>Hope this helps!</p>

<p>Wow. Spot on! Now I understand the "Force 'snippet'" and "Force 'complete' document" preference options. Thanks so much for the clarification.</p>
<p>You rock!</p>
<p>Peace out,<br>
