How do I produce this Greek letter koppa: Ϟ in pdfLaTeX?












6















I have been trying to typeset the character GREEK LETTER KOPPA. It has not been working. I know the Unicode number (U+03DE), and tried the command ^^3de and ^^3DE. Neither worked. I also tried char and char", but those didn't work either, other symbols get produced.



Does anybody have an idea as to how I can get my computer to typeset the symbol Ϟ?



MWE:



documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{article}  
usepackage[ngerman, polutonikogreek]{babel}
usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage{arevmath}
usepackage{lmodern}
fontfamily{lmr}selectfont
usepackage{geometry}
geometry{
a4paper,
top=30mm,
left=25mm,
right=20mm,
bottom=20mm,
}

begin{document}
selectlanguage{ngerman}

$Koppa$

end{document}

    @rensemil - It looks like you're loading some font-related packages in addition to arevmath. Have you tried not loading arevmath and typing Koppa (in math mode, presumably)?

If you have a font on your system that you know has that character you can use a package such as fontspec or mathspec to typeset your document (either whole or part, as you prefer) in that font.

  • Fair enough. For what it's worth, some Google fonts that support that character are Noto Serif, Cardo and Tinos (all serif; some sans serif ones are Noto Sans, Fira Sans and Arimo).

    Create a separate very simple (stripped down to the bare bones, including only the packages and content relevant for this issue) version of the code you have, click "edit" below your question and then include it in a code block (use the button with two curly braces).

You have it in the cm-unicode fonts, to be used with xelatex. They also have the archaic koppa. If you can type it directly on your keyboard, XeLaTeX will understand it. Other than that I defined two commands to obtain them (note the hexadecimal code is not the official unicode hexadecimal number):



documentclass[12pt]{article}
usepackage{fontspec}
setmainfont{CMU Serif}
defkoppa{char "03DF}
defarchaickoppa{char "03D9}

begin{document}

koppa: qquad LARGEkoppaqquad ϟ

{normalsize archaic koppa: qquad}archaickoppaqquad ϙ

    @rensemil: I think this message is for me. It's unrelated to your question.@Sebastiano>. I've found it this morning (grazie tante!), but didn't have time to look at your link. I've taken alook this evening. It seems to be a command to obtain delimiters still larger than Bigg. I dihad never heard of this construct, but I'm no guru.

Here is one definition that works with the modern toolchain. It requires LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX and an OpenType or TrueType font containing the glyph.



documentclass[varwidth]{standalone}
usepackage{mathtools}
usepackage{unicode-math}

defaultfontfeatures{Scale = MatchLowercase }
setmainfont{DejaVu Serif}[Scale = 1.0]
setmathfont{TeX Gyre DejaVu Math}

newcommandkoppa{ifmmode%
{mathord{text{^^^^03de}}}else%
^^^^03defi}

begin{document}
Here is the symbol koppa.

( koppa = koppa_{koppa_koppa} )
end{document}


DejaVu font sample



There are other ways to declare the symbol as well, including loading a font containing Ϟ as a symbol alphabet and using DeclareMathSymbol, or loading the symbol in text mode from a newfontfamily declared with fontspec, or defining it with newunicodechar, or loading all Greek letters from that Unicode block with ucharclasses, or finding an OpenType math font that has the glyph, or char"03DE, or symbol{"03DE}.

    The problem was the includment of the polutonikogreek package. Without it, everything works just fine.

        Create a separate very simple (stripped down to the bare bones, including only the packages and content relevant for this issue) version of the code you have, click "edit" below your question and then include it in a code block (use the button with two curly braces).

      If you have a font on your system that you know has that character you can use a package such as fontspec or mathspec to typeset your document (either whole or part, as you prefer) in that font.

      • Fair enough. For what it's worth, some Google fonts that support that character are Noto Serif, Cardo and Tinos (all serif; some sans serif ones are Noto Sans, Fira Sans and Arimo).

      You have it in the cm-unicode fonts, to be used with xelatex. They also have the archaic koppa. If you can type it directly on your keyboard, XeLaTeX will understand it. Other than that I defined two commands to obtain them (note the hexadecimal code is not the official unicode hexadecimal number):



      documentclass[12pt]{article}
      usepackage{fontspec}
      setmainfont{CMU Serif}
      defkoppa{char "03DF}
      defarchaickoppa{char "03D9}

      Here is one definition that works with the modern toolchain. It requires LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX and an OpenType or TrueType font containing the glyph.



      documentclass[varwidth]{standalone}
      usepackage{mathtools}
      usepackage{unicode-math}

      defaultfontfeatures{Scale = MatchLowercase }
      setmainfont{DejaVu Serif}[Scale = 1.0]
      setmathfont{TeX Gyre DejaVu Math}

      newcommandkoppa{ifmmode%
      {mathord{text{^^^^03de}}}else%
      ^^^^03defi}

      begin{document}
      Here is the symbol koppa.

      ( koppa = koppa_{koppa_koppa} )
      end{document}


      DejaVu font sample



      There are other ways to declare the symbol as well, including loading a font containing Ϟ as a symbol alphabet and using DeclareMathSymbol, or loading the symbol in text mode from a newfontfamily declared with fontspec, or defining it with newunicodechar, or loading all Greek letters from that Unicode block with ucharclasses, or finding an OpenType math font that has the glyph, or char"03DE, or symbol{"03DE}.
