Text Formatting ⇒ Customized enumerated Lists

[BMay]

How to circle the correct answer or how to make the number or letter inside the circle? In question two, let's assume today is Friday, and how to circle only c? How to circle a and b, and not c? All others numbering and itemized question keep in original form.

A search in the forum should yield ready-to-use solutions for numbers or letters in circles. For customized questions and answers you may look at packages like esami, exsheets or probsoln. Complete exams may be written with the exam class.

Hi BMAy,

Welcome to the LaTeX community!

Besides the very useful hints from Thorsten: in order to give you a qualified answer we should see some compilable code, i.e., a minimal working example. The best solutions may very well depend upon how you're creating the multiple choice questions. So: how did you create the PDF?

Regards

I made it like this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\begin{document}
\begin{enumerate}
\item{\bf Question}
\begin{itemize}
\item[a)] answer 1 
\item[b)] answer 2
\end{itemize}
\end{enumerate}
\end{document}

Regards.

Ok, so you're simply using standard LaTeX lists. In this case Thorsten advice for a forum search on circled numbers and maybe a look on the enumitem package should help you.

As an aside: \bf shouldn't really be used in LaTeX. It's been obsolete since 1992 (that's more than 20 years!), see also Does it matter if I use \textit or \it, \bfseries or \bf, etc.

We will continue our conversation after I get more knowledge about LaTex. Until then there is no point to talk to you. Thanks to: localghost and cgnieder. Consider my problem solved.

Best regards.
