I have a problem with set theory notation - and can't find a
(RiscOS) font which reproduces the 'open' R, C etc shown at the end of
the table in the following link.
Techwriter itself doesn't include them in its symbols palette.
http://www.rapidtables.com/math/symbols/Set_Symbols.htm
Any ideas anyone?
I have an open serif font, Mairo.Open which is similar but e.g. C has a thicker
line on the inside of the curve than the outside.
There must be a better match.

I drew my own in draw but I did ask about this at one of the shows, pre-MW ,
taking over the development.
The Electric Font Foundary (I think) did a font that had them all in, but I
didn't want to spend the £25 or so for the font.
So, there is a font out there with the symbols in......
The people who produce the Mathematical Gazette use RISC OS and Techwriter and
they clearly have a solution too.
With best wishes,
Martin
