Is there a font in Mathematica that corresponds to $$\Re$$ I found \[DoubleStruckCapitalR] corresponds to d

But this is different to the R I have written in first.

    $\begingroup$ In $\LaTeX$ it is Fraktur font, I believe, but Mathematica doesn't have it. Try running this: Text[Style[R, 24, FontFamily -> #]] & /@ $FontFamilies to see all the fonts. Yep: johndcook.com/blog/2018/07/21/fraktur-math $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Evaluate: FromCharacterCode[120189]. Either something will show up in the output cell or not. Still go ahead and copy/paste the invisible output into MS word. Of course inside MS word, just type U1D57D and then press Alt-X to see if you like the font. Word has proper support for unicode chars > 65535. For a more detailed Q/A: stackoverflow.com/questions/5597013/…. The unicode page for unicode equivalents of Fraktur is : w3.org/TR/MathML2/1D5.html. I am out of ideas now. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ I modified Davis Stork's code to {Text[Style[R, 24, FontFamily -> #]], #} & /@ $FontFamilies so I could see what's what. "SWGothg" looks very close: Style["R", FontSize -> 46, FontFamily -> "SWGothg"] $\endgroup$

I think SWGothg is as close as I can get with fonts I have installed.
Style["R", FontSize -> 12, FontFamily -> "SWGothg"]

  • $\begingroup$ Are you on Windows? SWGothg does not seem to be a "built-in" on my (Mac) system. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Windows 10 Pro 21H1, Mathematica 12.3. I have not specifically installed any font packs, must have come with some other software I have installed (Maybe SolidWorks?) $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ In the comments under the main question, @kglr has already suggested the "Euclid Fraktur" font that is an exact match. I think the OP needs further help with the use of that font in LateX. $\endgroup$
