Second question: When the mathematical relations were encoded there were variants that were unified where the sole difference was something subtle like a slant of one of the lines. However, these variants were also given Standardized Variation Sequences. Are there any fonts that contain glyphs for these variant forms? Either as replacement for the more typical forms, or as alternate glyphs? Again, I may simply not know where to look. ________________________________ one font, at least, carries both forms -- the best starting point is http://www.chastney.com/~philip/ although the website is a bit untidy and out-of-date two variants of the weak inequalities were included in the font only because the variants were encoded -- I can see no necessity for them likewise, I can see no necessity for both vertical andslanted negation but, last time I looked, they were not encoded separately /phil
