Does anyone know how to do > this? there's nothing like a blackboard or double-struck R and Z in latin-1 (and ASCII) so you will need to live with a transcription like `R' or `REALS' &c. In unicode these characters are called `double-struck capital r' and `double-struck capital z' and they have the hex values 211d and 2124 respectively. In Emacs you can enter them with `C-x 8 RET 211d RET' or `C-x 8 RET double-struck capital r RET'. The corresponding XML (XHTML) entities are `ℝ' or `ℝ' and `ℤ' or `ℤ' respectively. However, at least latest firefox does not know how to render these and outputs these entities literally so you might prefer to go for a transcription as well or use a unicode page encoding with the appropriate unicode characters. In case you are interested in further blackboard characters, w3c has a nice page about double-struck entities. Find it at http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-entity-names/double-struck.html.
