Hi Kip,
You may try characters with Unicode slots from U+2460 upto U+2469. They mean circled digits and are available in many fonts.
Thanks Ryszard. Those would be perfect, except I can't get them to work in ConTeXt. I tried using the \utfchar{0x2460} but it just displays the number 1.
I am assuming it needs a font that supports it, but I'm not sure how to switch to a supporting font just to typeset that character and then revert back. Is there some way to define a macro?
You could just define a fallback font, like: \definefontfallback[SymbolFB] [file:symbola.otf] [0x00300-0x003FF,0x02100-0x02800,0x1F000-0x20000] % look up the right Unicode ranges! [check=no,force=no] \definetypeface [myfonts] [rm] [serif] [times] [default] [fallbacks=SymbolFB] And then copy the character from a symbol table, no need for a macro. Hraban
