Hello Ross,<br><br>I know the Minion Pro from Adobe doesn't support blackboard bold fonts (though I wished it did - its just to start saving for the Minion Math fonts from typoma!), I just put it in there to avoid the errors when compiling. If I don't use \setmathbb{Minion Pro} I get an error for each \mathbb I have in the document, while if I do use it, the errors are skipped, but the output is ofcourse not in blackboard bold :)<br><br>I'll try some of the fonts you suggested for the blackboard bold though. I only knew about Asana Math and Cambria Math, so I'll definitely try the others as well, might be that I find them more suitable w.r.t. Minion Pro as default font in the rest of the document.<br><br>Thanks again!<br><br>Dragan<br><br><br><br>> From: ross@ics.mq.edu.au<br>> Date: Mon, 1 Mar 2010 15:10:30 +1100<br>> To: xetex@tug.org<br>> Subject: Re: [XeTeX] How to use AMS's \mathbb with XeLaTeX?<br>> <br>> Hello Dragan,<br>> <br>> On 01/03/2010, at 6:15 AM, dragan mitrevski wrote:<br>> <br>> > Hello,<br>> ><br>> > I'm new to XeTeX/XeLaTeX, so be kind ;)<br>> ><br>> > I just got a quick question, how can I use the AMSs' \mathbb for <br>> > blackboard bold fonts?<br>> <br>> > \setmathbb{Minion Pro}<br>> <br>> Minion Pro does not have support for any blackboard bold characters.<br>> --- at least not the version that I have.<br>> <br>> Try something which does:<br>> Asana Math, Cambria Math, Code 2001, Deja Vu, Free Serif, <br>> StixGeneral, Unicode Symbol<br>> support the full alphabet (upper & lower case).<br>> Many others, such as Linux Libertine, Ume ... , MS Gothic<br>> support just the commonly-used \mathbb capitals: C H N P Q R Z.<br>> <br>> > As I don't got the MinionPro Math font, I thought I could try other <br>> > fonts and see which that suits the MinionPro the best, but so far I <br>> > haven't managed to use any other useful fonts, so hopefully someone <br>> > can help me out. :)<br>> <br>> <br>> ><br>> > Cheers,<br>> ><br>> > drgz<br>> <br>> Hope this helps,<br>> <br>> Ross<br>> <br>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>> Ross Moore ross@maths.mq.edu.au<br>> Mathematics Department office: E7A-419<br>> Macquarie University tel: +61 (0)2 9850 8955<br>> Sydney, Australia 2109 fax: +61 (0)2 9850 8114<br>> ------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> --------------------------------------------------<br>> Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.:<br>> http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex<br> <br /><hr />Hotmail: Powerful Free email with security by Microsoft. <a href='https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969' target='_new'>Get it now.</a></body>
