Fonts & Character Sets ⇒ Capital H with a hat (^) below it.

[jocom]

Hi,

Does anyone know how to format a capital H with a hat (^) below it?
I've tried it with the TIPA package:

Code: Select all

\textipa{\v*{H}}

but the H codes for a hooktop H in TIPA, so I don't get the desired result.

Does a straightforward (La)TeX command exist, that does such a thing?

Thanks,
jocom

With tipa, did you try:

Code: Select all

\textsubcircum{H}

?

See the tipa documentation, page 51.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.
It's the same problem, as H still codes for a hooktop H instead of standard capital H.

Could you provide a minimal working example showing this behavior?

For me:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tipa}
\begin{document}
\textsubcircum{H}
\end{document}

generates the following output:

hcirc.png (545 Bytes) Viewed 5356 times

Could there be something else in your document that explains the difference?

Another option uses the accents package but I don't think it looks as good.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{accents}
\newcommand{\Hundercirc}{\ensuremath{\underaccent{\hat}{\textrm{H}}}}
\begin{document}

\Hundercirc
\end{document}

Hi,

Thank you very much! It works.
I didn't understand you right in your previous post and used \textsubcircum inside the \textipa command, instead of plain.

This is great!
