  • Quite good handling of internal links. Alternative display text and appended letters are supported to create the same look as in the online version. Subpage links are supported.
  • Very good Unicode/UTF8-Support (as much - or as little - as the underlying font covers).
  • Fast and easy searchable index.
  • Bookmarks
