Re: cursive and symbol fonts



One can always just use the Italic style on the character. We do that all
the time around here. This allows us to emphasize that a "letter" stands
for a variable in an equation as opposed to any occurrances of the same
"letter" in the text. Of course, we also use the symbol font which is
available on all Macs. My colleague, Willy Smith, makes a lot of use of
Expressionist, too.
