How to get "“>”"

Post by lehe »

Hi,
I was wondering how to get "“>”"? I tried "``>''", but it gives "“¿”". :shock:
Thanks!

You need a T1-encoded font. Currently Latin Modern seems to be the best option:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
>
\end{document}

Hi lehe,

btw. $>$ would work without T1. But I recommend T1 like phi.
Perhaps see the examples on Special LaTeX characters.

There's also some information about it in the Comprehensive Latex Symbols document, which is an incredibly useful document.
