We can't get a symbol for the DECwrite centering mark to appear in the online books. Unfortunately, my terminal also cannot create composite characters to show it. It looks like a miniature square with four little arms sticking out from each corner. We created this character for hard copy using compose sequences (not on my terminal!) and it printed in the hardcopy version. The compose sequence is OX. - Donna

Try <mcs>(general_currency) perhaps. | |||||

The problem is that DOCUMENT uses the MCS character set and DECwindows uses the ISOLatin1 character set. They are almost but not quite the same. I sent Donna a tag that will allow her to extract the character she wants from the ISO set. <mcs>(general_currency) might be acceptable, too. Mary | |||||

Mary's fix worked. I use the isolatin1 tag for character 164 and include the .gdx file into the file with the character. (Mary, I know you said to use symbol=xxx.gdx file, but I switched it to be consistent with how we use another .gdx file.) Success! Donna |
