symbols of greek alphabet appear as in italic...

Post by kostoglotov »

Hi all,
wanted to ask: when i use greek symbol in a text it always appears as if it was italic. Any idea how to overcome that?
An example:

10 micrometers... 10 $\mu$m

Cheers

Hi,

for upright Greek letters you could use the upgreek package:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{upgreek}
...
$\upmu$
If you want to typeset units have a look at the siunitx package or units, siunits.
