The sentence below wraps to a new line too soon: the word "rapporteur" should not be on a new line. This problem occurs whenever the sentence is too long to fit on a single line. \documentclass[aspectratio=1610,12pt,french]{beamer} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[french]{babel} \usepackage[locale=FR]{siunitx} \usepackage{lettrine} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{angles} \begin{document} \begin{frame}{} \lettrine[lraise=.25]{S}{ans} utiliser de rapporteur donner la mesure de chacun des angles sachant que $\widehat{xOz}=\ang{60}$. \bigskip \lettrine[lraise=.25]{S}{ans} utiliser de rapporteur donner la mesure de chacun des angles sachant que l'angle xOz mesure 60 degrés. \end{frame} \end{document} Here's what's displayed:

I would like to adjust the appearance of a twoline-TOC entry with scrbook, a KOMA-script document-class. The option chapterentrywithdots enables »dotting« the chapter entry. The book is structured by time periods. This MWE \documentclass[headings=optiontoheadandtoc, toc=chapterentrywithdots]{scrbook} \usepackage{fontspec} \begin{document} \tableofcontents \chapter[tocentry={Chronicles\\January 2026}]{Chronicles} January 2026 \end{document} yields this for the TOC: However, would it be possible to place the dots after the first line (»Chronicles . . . . 3«)? Background: I want to have the specific dates highlighted in the TOC more strongly than in the actual chapter where it is only normalsized text. This is why the time periods are placed in the TOC in the first place; but the chapter-name itself is more important and shall lead to the page-number with dots.

What I'm trying to do: I'm trying to change the text color of specific lines to highlight them in an algorithmic environment (using algpseudocodex package). \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage{algpseudocodex} \usepackage{algorithm} \usepackage{xcolor} \begin{document} \begin{algorithm} \begin{algorithmic} \State This should not be colored \leavevmode {\color{red} \State This should be colored} \For{$a \in A$} \If{$a = 1$ (this should also be colored)} \State This should be colored \Else \State This should not be colored \EndIf \EndFor \end{algorithmic} \end{algorithm} \end{document} What I tried: Add \color{red} and \color{black} before and after the lines I want to color. This gives me Package varwidth: Failed to reprocess entire contents. Create a group as per this answer (i.e. \leavevmode {\color{red} \State This should be colored} Gives me Missing } inserted. Wrap text in \textcolor{} Does work for the statements but not if I want to color the if-then keywords as well Does anyone have any suggestions?

Similar to the challenges with long tables described here, I also struggle with wide tables consisting of several columns, as they tend to run out of the screen. Is there a way to fix the width of a table to the screen size and automatically reduce the text size accordingly? While \adjustbox, for example, is working for fitting graphics to the screen size, it does not work for tables in my case. I also tried \resizebox, but was unable to find a working solution there either. Is there a solution to avoid the table running out of the screen other than statically (e.g. with \footnotesize) reducing the text size? Here is an MWE: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tabularx} \usepackage{tex4ebook} \begin{document} Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed eiusmod tempor incidunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

pdflatex Problem: need old-style numerals in main text Solution: \RequirePackage[osf]{newtxtext} Works fine in main text, but not in math mode. Problem: need old-style numerals also in math mode Solution: \DeclareMathSymbol{0}{\mathord}{letters}{0}` Works fine. Problem: need raised decimal point Solution: RequirePackage{decimal} Works fine as long as all numerals with a decimal point are in math mode, which is clear must be the case. That is not really relevant for the next problem, but it means that more numerals must be in math mode (unless I want 123$.$456 and so on). Problem: In text smaller or larger than normalsize, numerals are somewhat larger and bolder. Solution: Put all numerals in math mode if text is not normalsize. Remark: I noticed the problem since my tables are footnotesize. There, it's easy to get all numbers in math mode automatically, and it's only a minor problem that the numerals look a bit larger and bolder than they should. Problem: The user should not have to worry about whether the text is normalsize. Numbers in tables can be handled automatically. However, in an actual footnote numerals will differ in appearance whether or not they are in math mode. Ditto for text in any other size larger or smaller than normalsize. Note that the problem is NOT that the numerals are not scaling in math mode with the text. They are, whether the text is larger or smaller than normalsize. But they are always slightly larger and bolder than they should be (but not as large as the next larger size, nor as bold as boldfaceseries). Remark: I would be willing to switch to LuaLaTeX if I have to change little or nothing else. (I'll presumably have to use another font-selection mechanism and another font, but presumably there is a font similar to newtxtext and newtxmath.) In particular, the raised decimal point via the decimal package should still work (or there must be an easy alternative), and of course I still want old-style numerals not just in the main text but also in math mode. %class file \ProvidesClass{test}[2026/01/03] \LoadClass[8pt,twoside]{extarticle} \RequirePackage[T1]{fontenc} \RequirePackage[osf]{newtxtext} \RequirePackage{newtxmath} \RequirePackage{extsizes} \RequirePackage{fontsize} \changefontsize[10.2pt]{8.6pt} \DeclareMathSymbol{0}{\mathord}{letters}{`0} \DeclareMathSymbol{1}{\mathord}{letters}{`1} \DeclareMathSymbol{2}{\mathord}{letters}{`2} \DeclareMathSymbol{3}{\mathord}{letters}{`3} \DeclareMathSymbol{4}{\mathord}{letters}{`4} \DeclareMathSymbol{5}{\mathord}{letters}{`5} \DeclareMathSymbol{6}{\mathord}{letters}{`6} \DeclareMathSymbol{7}{\mathord}{letters}{`7} \DeclareMathSymbol{8}{\mathord}{letters}{`8} \DeclareMathSymbol{9}{\mathord}{letters}{`9} %user file \documentclass{test} \begin{document} \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \noindent \tiny Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \scriptsize \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \footnotesize \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \small \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \normalsize \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \large \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \Large \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \LARGE \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \huge \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \Huge \noindent Now is the time. 0123.456\\ Now is the time. $0123.456$ \end{document} \ProvidesFile{decimal.sty}[2011/06/03 v1.1 Package`decimal.sty'] \let\peri@d\. \def\.{\ifmmode\mbox{.}\else\expandafter\peri@d\fi} \DeclareMathSymbol{\cd@t}{\mathord}{symbols}{"01} \mathcode`\.="8000 {\catcode`\.=\active% \gdef.{\cd@t} } \endinput %% %% End of file `decimal.sty'.

I need a styled muxdemux like this. I asked myself: is it possible to get some annotations with path picture here (as a style addition)? For example a line and a node, which I only was able to add outside the style definition in the usual way. PS: Using a pic is clear; but that's a different topic. \documentclass[margin=5pt]{standalone} \usepackage{circuitikz} \begin{document} \begin{circuitikz}[] \ctikzset{muxdemux/outer label font={\tiny\ttfamily\color{blue}}} \tikzset{ mychip/.style={muxdemux, muxdemux def={ Lh=4, Rh=4, w=6,% sizes NR=0, NL=0, NB=3, NT=3,}, muxdemux label={ T1=T1, T2=T2, T3=T3, B1=B1, B2=B2, B3=B3, BR1=br1, BL1=bl1, BR2=br2, BL2=bl2, BR3=br3, BL3=bl3,% TR1=tr1, TL1=tl1, TR2=tr2, TL2=tl2, TR3=tr3, TL3=tl3,% }, alias=FG, % Does not have any effect ====================== path picture={%% \draw[red] (FG.bbpin 2) -- (FG.btpin 1) node[font=\tiny, align=center, midway, below, sloped] {internal annotation \\ works not}; },%% }, } \node[mychip]{chip}; \draw[brown] (FG.bbpin 2) -- (FG.btpin 3) node[font=\tiny, align=center, midway, below, sloped] {external annotation \\ works}; \end{circuitikz} \end{document}

I want to create a 6x5 dotted grid over an area with clearly defined width and height (\w and \h). Can I configure the grid to only display points at the intersections of the horizontal and vertical lines? I only get that with dash pattern=on 0pt off \w/6, for the x-positions.

I now have a file with the following contents. Normally, I can run pdflatex main to compile. When compiling for the second time, the previous auxiliary file will be loaded, and everything is normal. I have a clear demand now, that is, by configuring latexmkrc file, when running latexmk command, it is the same as running pdflatex main directly. At present, when running latexmk, the default rule will be triggered, resulting in that even if running latexmk for the second time, the directory will not be generated. % main.tex \documentclass{article} \begin{document} \tableofcontents \section{111} \subsection{222} \section{333} \end{document} $pdf_mode = 1; $max_repeat = 1; @default_files = ('main'); >latexmk Initial Win CP for (console input, console output, system): (CP936, CP936, CP936) I changed them all to CP936 Rc files read: latexmkrc Latexmk: This is Latexmk, John Collins, 15 June 2025.

Is there a third method to look at which can be better/easier to use? complete MWE for first method \documentclass[border=10pt]{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[ dot/.style={circle, fill=black, inner sep=1.5pt}, % Style for the black dots labelstyle/.style={left, font=\small} % Style for the labels (positioned to the left) ] % Define start and end points for the vertical line \coordinate (Start) at (0, 0); \coordinate (End) at (0, 11); % Draw the vertical line \draw (Start) -- (End); % Use a foreach loop to place equally spaced dots and labels \foreach \i in {0, 1, ..., 11} { % Place the dot as a node on the line \node[dot] (dot-\i) at (0, \i) {}; % Place the label to the left of the dot % The "left" anchor ensures the label sits to the left of the dot node \pgfmathsetmacro{\result}{int(2000-\i*50)}; \node[labelstyle] at (dot-\i.west) {year \result}; } \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} Complete MWE for the second method \documentclass[border=10pt]{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{math} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[ dot/.style={circle, fill=black, inner sep=1.5pt}, % Style for the black dots labelstyle/.style={left, font=\small} % Style for the labels (positioned to the left) ] % Define start and end points for the vertical line \coordinate (Start) at (0, 0); \coordinate (End) at (0, 11); % Draw the vertical line \draw (Start) -- (End); % Use a foreach loop to place equally spaced dots and labels \foreach \i in {0, 1, ..., 11} { % Place the dot as a node on the line \node[dot] (dot-\i) at (0, \i) {}; % Place the label to the left of the dot % The "left" anchor ensures the label sits to the left of the dot node \tikzmath { \result= int((2000-\i*50)); {\node[labelstyle] at (dot-\i.west) {year \result};}; } } \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} TL 2025

I would like to give two case-based equations and have them aligned. I've tried several different ways of doing it and always end up with something like this: \begin{equation}\begin{aligned} A & = \left\{\begin{matrix} bb \, , & q=0 \\ c \, , & q\ge1 \end{matrix}\right. \\ D & = \left\{\begin{matrix} ee \, , & q=0 \\ f \, , & q=1 \\ gggggg \, , & q\ge2 \end{matrix}\right. \end{aligned}\end{equation} The issue is that I want to have the bracket outside the matrix, so it can fit the size of the separate cases, and I also want to have the conditions aligned with one another, but I cannot do this unless they are not separated into two matrices for the brackets. I also need to have the expressions on the left side of the cases centered properly. Also, I would like to have the different cases to be left-aligned How can I have all three - the centered expressions on the left with properly-sized brackets, the aligned conditions, and the left-aligned cases?

I have some wide figures that I would like to set on facing pages so they can be compared. In this example the images fall on pages 3 and 4 which are overleaf. The images are a CFD profile and the equivalent bench-test results. \documentclass[a4paper,twoside]{ociamthesis} % Include necessary packages \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{float} \usepackage{lipsum} % ... any other packages you need \begin{document} \chapter{Introduction} The figures fall overleaf from each other, which makes comparison awkward \lipsum[] \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[width=1\linewidth]{example-image} \caption{bench} \label{fig:placeholder} \end{figure} \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[width=1\linewidth]{example-image} \caption{Enter Caption} \label{fig:placeholder} \end{figure} \end{document}

The unicode-math package re-defines ellipsis to be the ellipsis character in whatever font you're using, instead of spaced dots. This looks bad in my opinion, and violates the guidance on ellipses in every style guide I own. A solution for \ldots is provided here: variations-in-ldots. But that solution does not fix \cdots, \vdots, or \ddots. I managed to find a solution for \cdots that works in this MWE, but seems to fail in other instances that I haven't figured out a reliable way to reproduce. And I can't figure out a solution for \vdots or \ddots at all. \documentclass{article} \usepackage{unicode-math} \AtBeginDocument{ % From https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/120627/variations-in-ldots \renewcommand\mathellipsis{\mathinner{\ldotp\ldotp\ldotp}} \renewcommand\cdots{\mathinner{\cdotp\cdotp\cdotp}} % sometimes works %\renewcommand\vdots{\mathinner{\vdotp\vdotp\vdotp}} % doesn't work %\renewcommand\ddots{\mathinner{\ddotp\ddotp\ddotp}} % doesn't work } \begin{document} $\dots, \ldots, \cdots, \vdots, \ddots$ \end{document} Found an example of where my solution for \cdots didn't work. It's when \dots is used instead of \cdots explicitly to centrally place dots: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{unicode-math} \AtBeginDocument{ \renewcommand\mathellipsis{\mathinner{\ldotp\ldotp\ldotp}} \renewcommand\cdots{\mathinner{\cdotp\cdotp\cdotp}} % sometimes works } \begin{document} $x+\dots+ y$ % Do not get spaced dots $x+\cdots+ y$ % Do get spaced dots \end{document}

For the graphics I use on my physics exercise sheets made with TikZ I often use the same objects (hooks, masses, carts, pulleys, force gauges,...). So instead of copy-pasting and modifying the code of these objects I think it makes sense to make them into a ready to use object. There are three ways I know of to make that happen: TeX macros, pics and shapes. There are some features I wish the implementation of these objects to have and need some advice on how to implement it in order to have those features: An object should have multiple anchors so I can easily use certain points for further construction and choose which anchor to use for the placement (so there is no need to calculate that stuff manually). The hook for example could be placed at it's base or the actual hook and either one should be available afterwards for further placement of objects or paths. A default style should be set, i.e. the fill color or shading of the mass body, that can be overwritten. If placed inside a scope that changes shift, rotation, scale, line width,... these changes should automatically also apply to the object as a whole. I want to be able to construct new objects from already existing objects, i.e. I want to be able to use the hook as part of the mass, force gauge and cart. Right now I'm leaning towards defining new shapes, even tho I haven't used low level pgf before. As far as I can see 1 and 3 are no problem with shapes. I feel like 2 could also be achieved (any hints are appreciated - maybe defining a new style that uses that shape?). I however have no Idea if or how to make 4 work in defining a new shape. Pics on the other hand would make 2 and 4 easy as far as I can imagine. But they don't respond to the settings of a scope (3). Also anchors (1) are not natively supported but using tikzmark one answer to this question Anchoring TiKZ pics suggests this could be achieved as well (although I imagine it to be not quite as powerful as a new shape and takes two compilation runs if I understood correctly). Any thoughts, hints or pieces of advice are very welcome. I hope I described the setting clear enough. Edit The following Example is not meant to be beautiful but hopefully helps to illustrate the issue: \documentclass[tikz]{standalone} \usetikzlibrary{calc} \usetikzlibrary{tikzmark} \begin{document} \tikzset{ hook/.pic={ \draw[double=gray!80, double distance=1.4pt] (0,0) .. controls (0,-1.5) and (0,{1/sin(45)-2.5}) .. ($(45:1)+(0,-2.5)$) arc(405:140:1); \node[inner sep=2mm] (-hole) at (0,-2.5) {}; } } \tikzset{ cart/.pic={ \shadedraw[left color=blue, right color=blue!50] (-3,0) rectangle (3,2); \shadedraw[left color=black, right color=gray] (2,-.8) circle (.8); \shadedraw[left color=black, right color=gray] (-2,-.8) circle (.8); \pic[transform shape,rotate=90,scale=.5] (h) at (3,1) {hook}; \coordinate (-front-wheel) at (2,-1.6); \coordinate (-back-wheel) at (-2,-1.6); \node[inner sep=2mm] (-hook) at (h-hole) {}; } } \begin{tikzpicture} \draw (0,0) -- (8,0) -- (8,2); \pic[pic anchor=(-back-wheel),scale=.5] (cart) at (.5,0) {cart}; \pic[rotate=270,xscale=-1,scale=.25] (hook) at (8,0|-cart-hook) {hook}; \draw[ultra thick, line cap=round] (cart-hook) -- (hook-hole); \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} So using a pic with tikzmark (and transform shape as I've discovered) seems to check all the requirements. Can this also be achieved with a custom shape? As in this solution I dislike a few things: tikzmark needs two compilation runs no border anchors can be defined (at least I don't know how) It seems to me all anchors are defined every time a pic is inserted and not calculated when needed as with shapes. I'm not sure about the impacts on compilation time.

Task Consider the following: One needs to store a over time varying amount of pgfkeys entries with a nested data structure. All the entries have the same structure, but the content may vary. So one defines a macro to handle the pgfkeys structure initialization automatically when the user sets the data. Artificial Example: Inventory (MWE) \documentclass[parskip=full]{scrreprt} \usepackage{pgffor} \usepackage{pgfkeys} % DESCRIPTION: Set up inventory entries manually \pgfkeys{ /handlers/.is setter/.code=\pgfkeysedef{\pgfkeyscurrentpath}{% \noexpand\pgfqkeys{\pgfkeyscurrentpath}{##1}% },% /inventory/.cd, Manual 5 Speed/.is setter, Manual 5 Speed/inventory id/.initial = XXXXXXXXXX, Manual 5 Speed/product/.is setter,% Manual 5 Speed/product/manufacturer/.initial = EMPTY, Manual 5 Speed/product/product id/.initial = EMPTY, Manual 6 Speed/.is setter, Manual 6 Speed/inventory id/.initial = YYYYYYYYYY, Manual 6 Speed/product/.is setter,% Manual 6 Speed/product/manufacturer/.initial = EMPTY, Manual 6 Speed/product/product id/.initial = EMPTY } % DESCRIPTION: Logic for creating pgfkey "database" entry automatically and setting them to user specified data % ARGUMENTS: #1 = entry product, #2 = entry data \newcommand{\generateEntry}[2]{ % DESCRIPTION: Creating the pgfkeys "family" and intialize with default values \pgfkeys{ /handlers/.is setter/.code=\pgfkeysedef{\pgfkeyscurrentpath}{% \noexpand\pgfqkeys{\pgfkeyscurrentpath}{##1}% },% /inventory/#1/.cd, inventory id/.initial = ZZZZZZZZZZ, product/.is setter,% product/manufacturer/.initial = EMPTY, product/product id/.initial = EMPTY } % DESCRIPTION: Setting the data to the one specified by the user \pgfqkeys{/inventory/#1}{#2} } % DESCRIPTION: Macro for testing whether it is a problem with wrapping \pgfqkeys in an additional macro \newcommand{\setEntryData}[2]{ \pgfqkeys{/inventory/#1}{#2} } \begin{document} % DESCRIPTION: Setting the data of the manually added entry % with \pgfqkeys and "{}" notation % STATUS: WORKS AS EXPECTED \pgfqkeys{/inventory/Manual 5 Speed}{ inventory id = 6, product = { manufacturer = Herbert Motors, product id = 433M5 } } % DESCRIPTION: Setting the data of the manually added entry % with \pgfqkeys wrapped in macro and "{}" notation % STATUS: WORKS AS EXPECTED \setEntryData{Manual 6 Speed}{ inventory id = 11, product = { manufacturer = Herbert Motors, product id = 433M6 } } % DESCRIPTION: Generate and set data for automatic entry % with "/" notation % STATUS: WORKS AS EXPECTED \generateEntry{Automatic 4 Speed}{ inventory id = 21, product/manufacturer = Jane's Speedshop, product/product id = JS4A } % DESCRIPTION: Generate and set data for automatic entry % with "{}" notation % STATUS: FAILS FOR NESTED KEYS \generateEntry{Automatic 5 Speed}{ inventory id = 42, product = { manufacturer = Jane's Speedshop, product id = JS5A } } % DESCRIPTION: Visualize the data stored in the pgfkeys \section*{Inventory} \foreach \entry in {Manual 5 Speed, Manual 6 Speed, Automatic 4 Speed, Automatic 5 Speed}{ \textbf{\entry}:\\ inventory id: \pgfkeysvalueof{/inventory/\entry/inventory id}\\ manufacturer: \pgfkeysvalueof{/inventory/\entry/product/manufacturer}\\ product id: \pgfkeysvalueof{/inventory/\entry/product/product id} \\[0.25cm] } \end{document} This produces the following output: Issue When using the {...} notation to set the data of automatically generated entries, the data is not stored (see Automatic 5 Speed in MWE). The / notation seems to work. What was tried so far The problem seems to be related to the .is setter pgfkeys handler. It seems like the nested structure is not created, but a single key with e. g. product/manufacturer as id (with the / being interpreted as a letter, not a separator). So far, the following has been tried: Changing .code to .ecode Modifying the expansion from \noexpand to other possibilities Those experiments always resulted in errors and the compilation failing. Question Is there a simple way to achieve the desired behavior with pgfkeys (e.g. via .is family)? Suggestions of other methods are also welcome. However, solutions with pgfkeys would be preferred, since the rest of the data handling in the real project is already based upon pgfkeys.

I would have thought that if I declare \let\stdeqref\eqref, then the \stdeqref macro and the \eqref macro would be interchangeable. But here is an example where it fails! Moreover, this failure is (somehow) caused by the microtype package?! What is going on, and how to fix it? \documentclass{article} \usepackage{microtype} \usepackage{amsmath} \let\stdeqref\eqref \begin{document} \begin{equation}\label{a} A \end{equation} This is good spacing: \eqref{a}\allowbreak\eqref{a} This is bad spacing: \stdeqref{a}\allowbreak\stdeqref{a} But the bad spacing becomes good if we remove microtype! \end{document} The reason I'm asking is that I would like to redefine the \eqref macro in a way which uses the usual \eqref macro as a subcomponent, via the usual strategy I've seen time and time again on this site: \let\stdeqref\eqref \renewcommand\eqref[1]{Something fancy containing \stdeqref{#1} etc.} but that doesn't work anymore if \let isn't behaving as expected . . .

I'm using the enumext package to create multiple-choice questions. In my case, the answer labels are boxed letters, produced using the wrap-label key. The issue is that the boxed letters appear too close to each other vertically.

I'm typesetting my math document in Times New Roman using XeLaTeX and the fontspec package. I'm using mtpro2 as the math font, but I've noticed that certain letters, such as u, v and w, look quite different from their TNR italic counterparts (maybe because it's advertised as a Times-compatible font). Considering I'm already using the fontspec package, I tried ditching mtpro2 entirely and using other math fonts. I consulted the LaTeX Stack Exchange master list of maths fonts and tried XITS Math, TeX Gyre Termes Math and STIX Two Math. However, these fonts lack some features that I really like about mtpro2, such as round brackets (especially for matrices) and the letter z identical to the letter z in TNR. mtpro2 is here to stay. Next, I found the 'mathastext' package, which enables alphanumeric glyphs from the text font to be used in maths environments. For example, \usepackage[basic, italic]{mathastext} replaces all the alphanumeric characters in the maths font with the corresponding characters in the text font. However, this approach led me to another issue: the spacing between letters is awful, especially the subscripted ones. Since my only issue is with the letters u, v, and w, is there a way to just replace those three and use the rest of the mtpro2 glyphs? The code I'm using for my document is really bog standard: \documentclass{memoir} % Throw an error if this is not XeLaTeX. \usepackage{ifxetex} \RequireXeTeX \usepackage[lite]{mtpro2} \usepackage[no-math]{fontspec} \setmainfont{Times New Roman} \begin{document} \end{document} Any help would be appreciated.
