[Tex/LaTex] Upright Lowercase $\pi$

isomathmath-mode

On pg. 144 of Kopka and Daily's A Guide to LaTeX, they mention that the symbols $e$, $i$, $d$, and $\pi$ should be displayed upright in math mode (for their usual uses). This is easy to do for $e$, $i$, and $d$: just use \mathrm. However, this does nothing to \pi. How exactly do you generate an upright \pi in math mode?

One option could be to use \uppi from the upgreek package:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{upgreek}

\begin{document}

$\uppi$

$\pi$

\end{document}

Here's the upright symbol using the Symbol package option:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[Symbol]{upgreek}

\begin{document}

$\uppi$

$\pi$

\end{document}

enter image description here

and now using the Symbolsmallscale package option:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[Symbolsmallscale]{upgreek}

\begin{document}

$\uppi$

$\pi$

\end{document}
