I see that in my previous message (see below) the email list software did 
remove my attempt at inserting the "subset or equal" symbol, but you can see it 
in the links that I gave,

Just to remove any confusion, I do have this symbol in FrameMaker. The symbol I 
am looking for is the squared version, seen for example in this Stack Exchange 
discussion (https://bit.ly/4fJxGg3 , or 
https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/1929439/what-does-square-subset-and-square-union-symbol-mean
 for the full link). The actual question in that discussion is irrelevant for 
the present list but the pertinent part is the sentence in the first paragraph 
that reads 

        The notations in question are: ⊏, ⊑, ⊐, ⊒, ⊓, ⊔, and ⊨

(Again I don’t know if the framers-list software will preserve the symbols but 
you can see them at the original URL.) The symbol I need for the moment is the 
second one, a squared version of "subset or equal". 

Does anyone know how I can get it for FrameMaker?

As a matter of fact I might later need the others too, plus "top" and "bottom" 
(the first a kind of "T", the second one the same but flipped vertically -- 
readers familiar with denotational semantics, abstract interpretation and 
lattices will know these symbols). Same question about them, but for the moment 
"square subset or equal" is my need. Someone somewhere (I hope including in 
this Framers list) must have used it in FrameMaker!

Thanks in advance!

Subject: [Framers] Math symbol

I hope email preserves this special symbol. (Actually I cannot get it to 
copy-paste here as a character, so I am pasting in a screenshot instead, I hope 
email preserves it.) I am using this symbol

               

 

(“Subset of or equal to”.) If the mailing list processor messes it up, you can 
see it (as the first and main symbol discussed) at 
https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset; in LaTeX it is \subseteq (see e.g. 
https://www.cs.put.poznan.pl/ksiek/latexmath.html).

 

My question: I also need the same but with square angles rather than rounded. 

 

Anywhere I can get it predefined?

 

Of course I can draw it and use an inline frame (as I have done for 
non-standard concocted symbols) but I would prefer to use it as a predefined 
character if available. I haven’t found it anywhere so far.

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
