Hello, I am in the need of bulleted numbers, ie. a filled circle with a number in it. Imortant to me is, that I can use such a bulleted numer every where in floating text. But it is not necessary to have it in a table for now.
Three possible solutions came to mind: a) a font with special glyphs of this kind b) pic c) postscript a) I only know of fonts that have the numbers 1..10. I need also highr numbers. So, this is not usable in my case. b) Pic would work, but always places the figure in the middle. I couldn't workaround this c) Postscript would work, but I cannot figure out how to do the placement right. Here is my approach with pic and postscript. Maybe someone knows a way how to do it. -------8<---------8<---------------- .NH Point in Postscript .LP blah blah blah .de ci \X'ps: exec \\$1 \\$2 translate gsave 1 0 0 setrgbcolor 0 0 8 0 360 arc fill 1 1 1 setrgbcolor -2 2 moveto (\\$3) show grestore 0 0 translate .. .ci 50 50 2 blubb blubb blubb .NH Point in pic .LP blah blah blah .PS .sp -2.4 move left 4.0 circle radius 0.1 "\s-2\fB\m[white]2\m[black]\f[]\s+2" shaded "red" outline "red" .PE blubb blubb blubb -------8<---------8<---------------- Rüdiger
