Tried and tried!  :)  No joy though sadly.

Now I have added a third line to the page, where the font is set to
Arial... The HTML now looks like this

<p>test characters: ç = ç</p>
<p style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif;">test characters: ç =
ç</p>
<p style="font-family:Arial,sans-serif;">test characters: ç = ç</p>


The 1st and 3rd line show correctly... 2nd shows as in my previous
screenshot.
