Hi all, quick question: does anyone know of a free font that contains the symbols "left floor" (uni230A) and "right floor" (uni120B)? I have a commercial font that does have them, but I need a portable and free version for the next release of my Greek module. Thanks, and all best Thomas

Almost all math fonts have them. In math-vfu.lua, search for lines containing vector = tex-sy. All those fonts have lfloor and rfloor in positions 0x62 and 0x63. Aditya

Well, if I were 20 years younger, I would definitely hope for the Stix fonts. But alas, I think I will be dead and gone before they are released... Thanks luigi Thomas

I don't think so, because:
1) http://www.stixfonts.org/ Release Version Available in about 30 Days 2) you are immortal -- like everyone involved in ConTeXt -- luigi

From past experience, that probably means the first version (Type1 only, 50+ fonts, 8-bit fontspecific encodings, no tex support at all, buggy metrics) will be just in time for Christmas *this year* !
Best wishes, Taco

I wonder if this is a joke or not ... (http://www.stixfonts.org/): We have discovered many missing glyphs in the non-Unicode fonts (Unicode Private Use Area. Resolution of these problems is still being investigated. We will post a revised target for release date as soon as the missing glyphs have been replaced. clicking on the styx font glyph table is also puzzling as it pops up a message in firefox that one needs to install fonts that of course are non existent So, Thomas, you need to adapt the '20 years' criterium -) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
