"\angle" symbol is not working

Post by jmskuehn »

I need to include some \angle symbols in my work, but for some reason it's not working. All other symbols are working properly. Do you know why? I'd really appreciate your help. :-)

"\angle" symbol is not working

I can't comprehend the problem. The code below works.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}

\begin{document}
  $\angle$
\end{document}
So you will have to provide a counterexample.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Thank you for your fast reply. I just found out that it is a problem with the dvi compiler (yap.exe). As soon as I compile the document into ps or pdf, it works.
