Abstract

This document lists 2266 symbols and the corresponding LATEX commands that produce them. Some ofthese symbols are guaranteed to be available in every LATEX2ε system; others require fonts and packages thatmay not accompany a given distribution and that therefore need to be installed. All of the fonts and packagesused to prepare this document—as well as this document itself—are freely available from the ComprehensiveTEX Archive Network (http://www.ctan.org).

1 Introduction

Welcome to the Comprehensive LATEX Symbol List! This document strives to be your primary source of LATEXsymbol information: font samples, LATEX commands, packages, usage details, caveats—everything needed to putthousands of different symbols at your disposal. All of the fonts covered herein meet the following criteria:

1. They are freely available from the Comprehensive TEX Archive Network (http://www.ctan.org).

2. All of their symbols have LATEX 2ε names. That is, a user should be able to access a symbol by name, notjust by \char〈number〉.

These are not particularly limiting criteria; the Comprehensive LATEX Symbol List contains samples of 2266symbols—quite a large number. Some of these symbols are guaranteed to be available in every LATEX 2ε system;others require fonts and packages that may not accompany a given distribution and that therefore need to beinstalled. See http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=instpackages+wherefiles for help withinstalling new fonts and packages.

Document Usage

Each section of this document contains a number of font tables. Each table shows a set of symbols, with thecorresponding LATEX command to the right of each symbol. A table’s caption indicates what package needs tobe loaded in order to access that table’s symbols. For example, the symbols in Table 16, “textcomp Old-StyleNumerals”, are made available by putting “\usepackagetextcomp” in your document’s preamble. “AMS”means to use one of the AMS symbol packages, such as amssymb. Notes below a table provide additionalinformation about some or all the symbols in that table.

One note that appears a few times in this document, particularly in Section 2, indicates that certain symbolsdo not exist in the OT1 font encoding (Donald Knuth’s original, 7-bit font encoding, which is the default fontencoding for LATEX) and that you should use fontenc to select a different encoding, such as T1 (a common 8-bit font encoding). That means that you should put “\usepackage[〈encoding〉]fontenc” in your document’spreamble, where 〈encoding〉 is, e.g., T1 or LY1. To limit the change in font encoding to the current group, use“\fontencoding〈encoding〉\selectfont”.

Section 7 contains some additional information about the symbols in this document. It shows which symbolnames are not unique across packages, gives examples of how to create new symbols out of existing symbols,explains how symbols are spaced in math mode, presents a LATEX ASCII and Latin 1 tables, and provides someinformation about this document itself. The Comprehensive LATEX Symbol List ends with an index of all thesymbols in the document and various additional useful terms.

font encoding, such as T1.‡ Requires the T4 font encoding, provided by the fc package.

Also note the existence of \i and \j, which produce dotless versions of “i” and “j”(viz., “ı” and “”). These are useful when the accent is supposed to replace the dot.For example, “na\"\ive” produces a correct “naıve”, while “na\"ive” wouldyield the rather odd-looking “naive”. (“na\"ive” does work in encodings otherthan OT1, however.)

The wsuipa package defines all of the above as ordinary characters, not as accents.However, it does provide \diatop and \diaunder commands, which are used to com-pose diacritics with other characters. For example, \diatop[\overring|a] produces“xa”, and \diaunder[\underdots|a] produces “ra”. See the wsuipa documentationfor more information.

3 Mathematical symbols

Most, but not all, of the symbols in this section are math-mode only. That is, they yield a “Missing $inserted” error message if not used within $. . .$, \[. . .\], or another math-mode environment. Operatorsmarked as “variable-sized” are taller in displayed formulas, shorter in in-text formulas, and possibly shorter stillwhen used in various levels of superscripts or subscripts.

Alphanumeric symbols (e.g., “L ” and “”) are usually produced using one of the math alphabets in Table 66rather than with an explicit symbol command. Look there first if you need a symbol for a transform, number set,or some other alphanumeric.

The various text-mode symbols defined by the textcomp package are made available in math mode throughthe mathcomp package.

Also note the existence of \imath and \jmath, which produce dotless versions of “i”and “j”. (See Table 56 on the following page.) These are useful when the accent issupposed to replace the dot. For example, “\hat\imath” produces a correct “ ı ”,while “\hati” would yield the rather odd-looking “ i ”.

4 Science and technology symbols

This section lists symbols that are employed in various branches of science and engineering (and, because wewere extremely liberal in our classification, astrology, too).

In addition, within \textifsym. . ., the following codes are valid:

l l m m h h d d < < > >

L L M M H H D D = << ? >>

This enables one to write “\textifsymmm<DDD>mm” to get “mm<DDD>mm” or“\textifsymL|H|L|H|L” to get “L|H|L|H|L”.

Finally, \textifsym supports the display of segmented digits, as would appear on anLCD: “\textifsym-123.456” produces “-123.456”. “\textifsymb” outputsa blank with the same width as an “8”.

5 Dingbats

Dingbats are symbols such as stars, arrows, and geometric shapes. They are commonly used as bullets in itemizedlists or, more generally, as a means to draw attention to the text that follows.

The pifont dingbat package warrants special mention. Among other capabilities, pifont provides a LATEXinterface to the PostScript Zapf Dingbats font. However, rather than name each of the dingbats individually,pifont merely provides a single \ding command, which outputs the character that lies at a given position in thefont. The consequence is that the pifont symbols can’t be listed by name in this document’s index, so be mindfulof that fact when searching for a particular symbol.

7 Additional Information

Unlike the previous sections of this document, Section 7 does not contain new symbol tables. Rather, it providesadditional help in using the Comprehensive LATEX Symbol List. First, it draws attention to symbol names usedby multiple packages. Then, it provides some guidelines for finding symbols and gives some examples regardinghow to construct missing symbols out of existing ones. Next, it comments on the spacing surrounding symbolsin math mode. After that, it presents an ASCII and Latin 1 quick-reference guide, showing how to enter all ofthe standard ASCII/Latin 1 symbols in LATEX. And finally, it lists some statistics about this document itself.

7.1 Symbol Name Clashes

Unfortunately, a number of symbol names are not unique; they appear in more than one package. Dependingon how the symbols are defined in each package, LATEX will either output an error message or replace an earlier-defined symbol with a later-defined symbol. Table 122 lists the name clashes that appear in this document.The symbol “N/A” is used to indicate that the corresponding package was not available when symbols.tex wascompiled.

Using multiple symbols with the same name in the same document—or even merely loading conflicting symbolpackages—can be tricky, but, as evidenced by the existence of Table 122, not impossible. The general procedureis to load the first package, rename the conflicting symbols, and then load the second package. Examine theLATEX source for this document—especially the \savesymbol and \restoresymbol macros and their subsequentusage—to see one possible way to handle symbol conflicts.

txfonts and pxfonts redefine a huge number of symbols—essentially, all of the symbols defined by latexsym,textcomp, the various AMS symbol sets, and LATEX 2ε itself. The txfonts and pxfonts conflicts are not listed inTable 122 because they are designed to be compatible with the symbols they replace. Table 123 on the next pageillustrates what “compatible” means in this context.

To use the new txfonts/pxfonts symbols without altering the document’s main font, merely reset the defaultfont families back to their original values after loading one of those packages:

\renewcommand\rmdefaultcmr\renewcommand\sfdefaultcmss\renewcommand\ttdefaultcmtt

7.2 Where can I find the symbol for . . . ?

If you can’t find some symbol you’re looking for in this document, there are a few possible explanations:

The symbol isn’t intuitively named. As a few examples, the command to draw dice is “\Cube”; a plus signwith a circle around it (“exclusive or” to computer engineers) is “\oplus”; and lightning bolts in fontsdesigned by German speakers may have “blitz” in their names. The moral of the story is to be creativewith synonyms when searching the index.

The symbol is defined by some package that I overlooked (or deemed unimportant). If there’s some symbolpackage that you think should be included in the Comprehensive LATEX Symbol List, please send me e-mailat the address listed on the title page.

The symbol isn’t defined in any package whatsoever.

Even in the last case, all is not lost. Sometimes, a symbol exists in a font, but there is no LATEX binding for it.For example, the PostScript Symbol font contains a “↵” symbol, which may be useful for representing a carriagereturn, but there is no package for accessing that symbol (as far as I know). To produce an unnamed symbol, youneed to switch to the font explicitly with LATEX 2ε’s low-level font commands [LAT00] and use \char to request aspecific character number in the font.2

Symbols that do not exist in any font can sometimes be fabricated out of existing symbols. The LATEX 2εsource file called fontdef.dtx contains a number of such definitions. For example, \models (see Table 29 onpage 16) is defined in that file with:

\def\models\mathrel|\joinrel=

where \mathrel and \joinrel are used to control the horizontal spacing. (See The TEXbook [Knu86] for moreinformation on those commands.)

With some simple pattern-matching, one can easily define a backward \models sign (“=|”):

\def\ismodeledby=\joinrel\mathrel|

As another example, fontdef.dtx composes the \ddots symbol (see Table 56 on page 23) out of three periods,raised 7 pt., 4 pt., and 1 pt., respectively:

\def\ddots\mathinner\mkern1mu\raise7\p@\vbox\kern7\p@\hbox.\mkern2mu\raise4\p@\hbox.\mkern2mu\raise\p@\hbox.\mkern1mu

\p@ is a LATEX 2ε shortcut for “pt” or “1.0pt”. The remaining commands are defined in The TEXbook [Knu86].To draw a version of \ddots with the dots going along the opposite diagonal, we merely have to reorder the\raise7\p@, \raise4\p@, and \raise\p@:

2pifont defines a convenient \Pisymbol command for accessing symbols in PostScript fonts by number. For example,“\Pisymbolpsy191” produces “↵”.

39

Page 40: All Latex Symbols

\makeatletter\def\revddots\mathinner\mkern1mu\raise\p@

\vbox\kern7\p@\hbox.\mkern2mu\raise4\p@\hbox.\mkern2mu\raise7\p@\hbox.\mkern1mu

\makeatother

(The \makeatletter and \makeatother commands are needed to coerce LATEX into accepting “@” as part of amacro name.)

As a final example of creating new symbols out of existing ones, the following code defines a principal valueintegral symbol, which is an integral sign with a line through it:

\def\Xint#1\mathchoice\XXint\displaystyle\textstyle#1%\XXint\textstyle\scriptstyle#1%\XXint\scriptstyle\scriptscriptstyle#1%\XXint\scriptscriptstyle\scriptscriptstyle#1%\!\int

\def\XXint#1#2#3\setbox0=\hbox$#1#2#3\int$\vcenter\hbox$#2#3$\kern-.5\wd0

\def\ddashint\Xint=\def\dashint\Xint-

\dashint produces a single-dashed integral sign (“−∫

”), while \ddashint produces a double-dashed one (“=∫

”). Thesame technique can be used to produce, for example, clockwise and counterclockwise contour integrals. (Searchthe comp.text.tex archives for a post by Donald Arseneau that says exactly how.) The preceding code wastaken verbatim from the UK TEX Users’ Group FAQ (http://www.tex.ac.uk/faq).

Accents are a special case of combining existing symbols to make new symbols. While various tables inthis document show how to add an accent to an existing symbol, some applications, such as transliterationfrom non-Latin alphabets, require multiple accents per character. For instance, the creator of pdfTEX writeshis name as “Han Th´e Thanh”. The wsuipa package defines \diatop and \diaunder macros for putting oneor more diacritics or accents above or below a given character. For example, \diaunder[\diatop[\’|\=]|\textsubdotr] produces “´r”. See the wsuipa documentation for more information.

The accents package facilitates the fabrication of accents in math mode. Its \accentset command enables anycharacter to be used as an accent. For instance, \accentset\starf produces “

?

f ” and \accentseteXproduces “

e

X”. \underaccent does the same thing, but places the accent beneath the character. This enablesconstructs like \underaccent\tildeV, which produces “

˜V”. accents provides other accent-related features

as well; see the documentation for more information.

7.3 Math-mode spacing

Terms such as “binary operators”, “relations”, and “punctuation” in Section 3 primarily regard the surroundingspacing. (See the Short Math Guide for LATEX [Dow00] for a nice exposition on the subject.) To use an symbolfor a different purpose, you can use the TEX commands \mathord, \mathop, \mathbin, \mathrel, \mathopen,\mathclose, and \mathpunct. For example, if you want to use \downarrow as a variable (an “ordinary” symbol)instead of a delimiter, you can write “$3 x + \mathord\downarrow$” to get the properly spaced “3x + ↓”rather than the awkward-looking “3x+ ↓”. See The TEXbook [Knu86] for more information.

The purpose of the “log-like symbols” in Tables 39 and 40 is to provide the correct amount of spacing aroundand within multiletter function names. Table 124 on the following page contrasts the output of the log-like symbolswith various, naıve alternatives. In addition to spacing, the log-like symbols also handle subscripts properly. Forexample, “\max_p \in P” produces “maxp∈P” in text, but “max

p∈P” as part of a displayed formula.

7.4 ASCII and Latin 1 quick reference

Table 125 amalgamates data from various other tables in this document into a convenient reference for LATEX 2εtypesetting of ASCII characters, i.e., the characters available on a typical3 computer keyboard. The first twocolumns list the character’s ASCII code in decimal and hexadecimal. The third column shows what the characterlooks like. The fourth column lists the LATEX 2ε command to typeset the character as a text character. And thefourth column lists the LATEX 2ε command to typeset the character within a \texttt. . . command (or, moregenerally, when \ttfamily is in effect).

The following are some additional notes about the contents of Table 125:

\textquotedbl is not available in the OT1 font encoding.

The characters “<”, “>”, and “|” do work as expected in math mode, although they produce, respectively,3typical for the United States, at least

41

Page 42: All Latex Symbols

“¡”, “¿”, and “—” in text mode.4 Hence, $<$, $>$, and $|$ serve as a terser alternative to \textless,\textgreater, and \textbar. Note that for typesetting metavariables, many people prefer \textlangleand \textrangle to \textless and \textgreater, i.e., “〈filename〉” instead of “<filename>”.

The various \char commands within \texttt are necessary only in the OT1 font encoding. Using otherencodings (e.g., T1), commands such as \, \, \_, and \textbackslash all work properly.

\textasciicircum can be used instead of \^, and \textasciitilde can be used instead of \~. Fortypesetting tildes in URLs and Unix filenames, some people prefer \sim (see Table 29 on page 16), whichproduces a larger symbol. But if you don’t mind the tilde produced by \~, you should use the url packageto typeset URLs—it has a number of additional nice features.

The IBM version of ASCII characters 1 to 31 can be typeset using the ascii package. See Table 76 onpage 28.

To replace ‘ and ’ with the more computer-like (and more visibly distinct) ` and ' within a verbatimenvironment, use the upquote package. Outside of verbatim, you can use \char18 and \char13 to get themodified quote characters. (The former is actually a grave accent.)

Similar to Table 125, Table 126 on the following page is an amalgamation of data from other tables in thisdocument. While Table 125 shows how to typeset the 7-bit ASCII character set, Table 126 shows the Latin 1(Western European) character set, also known as ISO-8859-1.

The following are some additional notes about the contents of Table 126:

A “(tc)” after a symbol name means that the textcomp package must be loaded to access that symbol.A “(T1)” means that the symbol needs the T1 font encoding. The fontenc package can change the fontencoding document-wide.

Many of the \text. . . accents can also be produced using the accent commands shown in Table 8 on page 8plus an empty argument. For instance, \= is essentially the same as \textasciimacron.

The commands in the “LATEX 2ε” columns work in both body text and within a \texttt. . . command(or, more generally, when \ttfamily is in effect).

Microsoft® Windows® normally uses a superset of Latin 1 called “CP1252” (Code Page 1252). CP1252adds codes in the range 128–159 (hexadecimal 80–9F), including characters such as dashes, daggers, andquotation marks. If there’s sufficient interest, a future version of the Comprehensive LATEX Symbol Listmay include a CP1252 table.

7.5 About this document

History David Carlisle wrote the first version of this document in October, 1994. It originally contained all ofthe native LATEX symbols (Tables 21, 22, 29, 35, 39, 41, 46, 47, 52, 53 55, and 56) and was designed to be nearlyidentical to the tables in Chapter 3 of Leslie Lamport’s book [Lam86]. Even the table captions and the order ofthe symbols within each table matched! The AMS symbols (Tables 23, 30, 31, 36, 37, 42, 45, 48, and 57) andan initial Math Alphabets table (Table 66) were added thereafter. Later, Alexander Holt provided the stmaryrdtables (Tables 24, 25, 32, 33, 38, 49, and 59).

In January, 2001, Scott Pakin took responsibility for maintaining the symbol list and has since implementeda complete overhaul of the document. The result, now called, “The Comprehensive LATEX Symbol List”, includesthe following new features:

The addition of a handful of new math alphabets, dozens of new font tables, and thousands of new symbols

The categorization of the symbol tables into body-text symbols, mathematical symbols, science and tech-nology symbols, dingbats, and other symbols, to provide a more user-friendly document structure

An index, table of contents, and a frequently-requested symbol list, to help users quickly locate symbols4Donald Knuth didn’t think such symbols were important outside of mathematics, so he omitted them from the OT1 font encoding.

If you’re having trouble locating a symbol, try looking under “T” for “\text. . .”. Many text-mode commands begin withthat prefix.
