Hello,
I was just about to send my book to press when I noticed the '£' appears in my PDF as an italic dollar sign.
I looked it up in the archive and google. Have tried \pound and \sterling -- nothing seems to work.
It's very strange, when I output the chapter's product separately from the project the £ appears as expected. When I generate the project it appears as italic $.
this depends on the font ... normally it should work out ok if you use \$ there is some historic issue here: in the cmr there were different characters in the same slot for italic / regular afaik tex gyre is normal ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
