Hello I followed Adams nice way, to include unicode symbols. Now I want to ask, how these can be scaled, so that they can be used more like small figures. Any hints? TIA, __Janko Hauser

Hmm, it depends a bit on how you get these (I assume) Unicode symbols and fonts. Note that symb-uni is part of the main distro now, and you probably should set my earlier version of the file aside. You could redefine \USymbChar after \usesymbols[uni]: \def\USymbChar#1#2{% \scale[sx=0.8,sy=0.8]{\uchar#1#2}} \let\USymbCharTwo\USymbChar \let\USymbCharZapf\USymbChar (untested, inelegant) -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
