Mathbb-one – Blackboard-bold 1 for amssymb’s \mathbb, as a vector font
amssymb’s \mathbb
has no digits, so \mathbb{1} (the indicator function)
prints a stray symbol.
Loading mathbb-one makes \mathbb{1} and \Bbbone
print the 1
from Gilles F. Robert’s
bbm fonts,
the closest match to the Computer Modern style of
\mathbb, shipped as Type 1 outlines instead
of METAFONT bitmaps. Nothing else changes.
Works with pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX and XeLaTeX;
under unicode-math
it steps aside.
An OpenType bbone.otf is included for
unicode-math users
who prefer this glyph.
