General ⇒ mathbb style for lowercase letters

[ryanfritz]

Hello!

I got a problem with regards to using \mathbb for lowercase letters.. it won't output correctly, it only works on uppercase letters.. what package do i need for it to work? or are there any option to make up with this?

Please help.. Thanks!

I knew that I already have read this where else [1]. I gave you an answer in another forum. Please avoid double posting to different forums (as a matter of fairness).

yes, I understand. However, I did revise the question a bit.. I was looking for any option regarding it..

There is NO option. Again I wonder how these small Blackboard characters should look like. Do you have any idea or can you name a picture source so I can figure out that? And what would be the purpose of having them? What do you need them for?

here it is.. Thank you for responding.. I need to use it for something..

OK, that's proof enough. Perhaps the pst-text package yields a workaround. Take a look at the documentation (Section 2 - Character manipulations, p. 5ff).

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate it..

I got it! I have to revise all my former statements. The bbm package is exactly what you need. Then you can typeset the expression from the picture with a double struck small character.

Code: Select all

$\{\boldsymbol{z_t}\in\mathbbm{t}\mathbb{N}\}$

Hi ryanfritz,

welcome to the LaTeX Community board!
Just to mention one alternative: bbold has small blackboard letters too. I would prefer bbm though, that Thorsten mentioned.
There is a demonstration file for various blackboard fonts.
