How do I see all symbols in a symbolset. With \starttext \showsymbolset[uni] \showsymbolset[nav] \stoptext I get a blank page. Aditya

Symbol sets do not have a strict relation to file names. "symb-nav.tex", for instance, defines three symbol sets: "navigation 1", "navigation 2" , "navigation 3". \starttext \showsymbolset[navigation 1] \showsymbolset[navigation 2] \showsymbolset[navigation 3] \stoptext IIRC, some of the Unicode symbol sets require commercial fonts (from MacOS X). Cheers, Taco

Thanks. I will look in the sym-* files for names of other symbolsets. Aditya

Eh, "require" is such a strong word... There are some placeholders in there, since the Mac OS X fonts were easy (for me) to get. The XeTeX code that named the fonts explicitly (hmm, bad old assumption now...) was set off in a conditional in the hopes that a more general solution would come along... -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.

When the dust from eurotex2006 settles down, I hope to have a look at this. I have some half-finished fonts for unicode symbols lying around that could perhaps be extended. Remind me in a month or so? Cheers, taco

I did this and the wasy symbols come out nicely: \usemodule[symb-was] \showsymbolset [wasy general] What I can think of: a module that has to be loaded as in the above example. Hope this helps. Hans van der Meer
