I need to create two custom symbols for an article I am writing. The two symbols should have the same size as usual mathematical symbols, and should look like this:
(sorry for the small size). I would define them pixel by pixel, but I don't know how to do it, nor what the correct conventions are (like height/width depending if it is a normal equation, inline equation or sub/superscript). Could anyone help or explain how to do it?
The symbols \upspoon
and \upfilledspoon
in the MnSymbol
package are close to what I want, but I'd prefer if they had little squares instead of little circles. Same thing for \upspoon
and \upblackspoon
in fdsymbol
.
However, both those packages appear to interfere with the packages I already use for mathematical symbols.
