I know this question is very similar, but most everything there is centered on MnSymbol
, but I am trying to use or "obtain" three symbols using the arevmath
package (I am using pdfLaTeX
and MiKTeX):
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{arevmath}
\begin{document}
The important symbols: $\Sampi, \Qoppa$ and $\stigma$. The problem: $30+40+\phi=0$.
\end{document}
produces:
On the other hand,
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
Needed symbols: \texttt{\textbackslash Sampi,\textbackslash Qoppa}, and \texttt{\textbackslash stigma}. No problem: $30+40+\phi=0$.
\end{document}
produces:
Is there a way to get or use these symbols without completely ruining the look of the other mathematical formulas I am trying to use? I tried using wrisym
as well, but it did not compile. I have looked at a number of other fairly similar questions, but I could not find anything that I could apply directly to the problem I'm currently facing.
Best Answer
Something like this? This takes a maths alphabet. You can avoid this if necessary but if you want several symbols from the font, it is more straightforward this way.
Not necessarily typographically ideal, perhaps, but it does get you those symbols without changing the rest.
Explanation
I started by just seeing what the package
arev
provided.arevsymbols.tex
sounded likely so I started there. (Otherwise, I'd have usedgrep
to search for one of the commands you mentioned.) I got the definitions of the commands from that file:So now I just needed to know what
extraitalic
was. I usedgrep
for this on just the.sty
files:This gave me this:
and the first line,
was the one I was looking for.
