- Readme File for the mathbbol package by J"org Knappen
- (c) Copyleft 1995 J"org Knappen under the GNU licence version 2
-
- The mathbbol package exploits the bbold-fonts and the cspex-fonts
- designed by Alan Jeffrey. Many people prefer these fonts over the
- AMS \mathbb, because the symbols for the real numbers, complex numbers,
- etc. look just right. But the Jeffrey fonts contain more: blackbord bold
- digits, lower case, greek and even punctuation.
-
- To use this package, just write
- \usepackage[cspex,bbgreekl]{mathbbol}
- in the preamble of the document. Note that this package has two options.
-
- -- cspex activates the special extension font, allowing you to say
- $\left\Lbrack ... \right\Rbrack$ to get double lined extensible
- brackets.
- -- bbgreekl activates commands for the lower case blackbord bold greek,
- which are just \bbalpha ... \bbomega.
-
- Without options, the following commands are defined:
- \mathbb{A} to produce blackbord bold A. It overwrites AMS-LaTeX's \mathbb
- (and can be overwritten if you load amsfonts after mathbbol)
- \Langle, \Lbrack, \Lparen to produce blackbord bold <, [, (
- \Rangle, \Rbrack, \Rparen right counterparts of the above
- \Eins to produce blackbord bold digit 1.
-
- Please find the bbold and cspex fonts on your nearest CTAN archive in
- directory tex-archive/fonts/bbold. This package assumes that the Sauter-
- tools, to be found in tex-archive/fonts/cm/sauter, are used to generate
- the fonts at true sizes.
-

- mathbbol.rme This readme file

- Ubbold.fd Font definition file for the bbold fonts
- Ucspex.fd Font definition file for the cspex fonts
