Hi ho! I needed some symbols from the wasy fonts (known from the LaTeX package wasysym), and here's the whole set for you. ;-) The ZIP contains the module symb-was.tex, the font map original- wasy.map and a test tex file. (The wasy fonts live in http://dante.ctan.org/CTAN/fonts/wasy2/, but they're part of most TeX installations.) I left out the mathematical operators and integrals for I don't know nothing about math and I guess that the stuff is already part of core math. symb-was.tex addresses only wasy10 (see below), but there are also wasy5-9 and wasyb10 (bold?) - how can I use these? (Don't know if that makes any sense.) \definefontsynonym [WaSy] [wasy10] \def\WaldiSymbol#1{\getglyph{WaSy}{\char#1}} If someone can tell if the math stuff is needed and if the font design size issue is fixed, I'd be happy if this module would make it into the core distribution.

\definefontsynonym [WaSy] [wasy10] \def\WaldiSymbol#1{\getglyph{WaSy}{\char#1}}
define: \definefontsynonym [WaldiSymbol] [wasy10] \definefontsynonym [WaldiSymbolBold] [wasyb10] \def\WaldiSymbol#1{\getglyph{WaldiSymbol}{\char#1}} plus your further defs, and you get bold for free: \symbol[wasy general][male] {\bf \symbol[wasy general][male] this is because getglyph is kind of clever -) I'll add a (slightly patched) version of your file to the distribution Hans

Oh, me stupid, could have thought of that myself. But what about the different design sizes? I don't think that makes much sense here, but how would I address them?

just pretend that there is only 10pt

by some kind of clever mapping where the name is taken from a control sequence with 10pt as fall back; a few lines of code probably, but not worth the effort Hans

Ok; I thought I'd remember some typescript magic with "sized" fonts, but couldn't find it; no wonder if it's not possible. ;-) Grüßlis vom Hraban! --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://contextgarden.net http://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)
