[[File:EditPreferences-GenealogicalSymbols-tab-default-51.png|right|thumb|450px|Fig. {{#var:chapter}}.{{#vardefineecho:figure|{{#expr:{{#var:figure}}+1}}}} "Genealogical Symbols" - Preferences tab - defaults]]
{{stub}}<!-- update details for gramps 5.1 -->
This tab gives you the possibility to use one font which is able to show all genealogical symbols.
If you select the "use symbols" checkbox, Gramps will use the selected font if it exists.
This can be useful if you want to add phonetic in a note to show how to pronounce a name or if you mix multiple languages like greek and russian.
You can only configure the death symbol from this tab.
