Re: use only one symbol of txfonts

not perfect (because looks a little different than the normal \perp symbol) but much better than messing up the font. thank you, i will go with this for now (until i find a better matching one).

would you please explain what that does exactly? i kind of guess-understand the last line, but what are the others for?

regards,
peter

Put:

\DeclareSymbolFont{symbolsC}{U}{pxsyc}{m}{n}
\SetSymbolFont{symbolsC}{bold}{U}{pxsyc}{bx}{n}
\DeclareFontSubstitution{U}{pxsyc}{m}{n}
\DeclareMathSymbol{\Perp}{\mathrel}{symbolsC}{121}

in the preamble of your document.

François
