The fontsetup package provides with a \convolution operator command to access a big star symbol from the New Computer Modern fonts. However, fontsetup works only with XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX. How does one access this glyph from the NewCM fonts with OpTeX? The \convolution command is defined in fspdefault.tex as \DeclareMathOperator*{\convolution}{\mathchoice{\char"E037}{\char"E036}{\char"E038}{\char"E039}}. The question essentially asks about using glyphs not encoded their Unicode slots (Private Use Areas?), as a Unicode slot for the glyph does not exist. LuaLaTeX MWE: \documentclass{article} \usepackage[newcmbb]{fontsetup} \begin{document} \[ \convolution_{1\le i\le n} a_i \] \[ \sum_{i=1}^n \convolution_{i=1}^n x_i \qquad \textstyle \sum\convolution_{i=1}^n x_i \qquad \scriptstyle \sum\convolution_{i=1}^n x_i \qquad \scriptscriptstyle \sum\convolution_{i=1}^n x_i \] \end{document}

How can I display the intersection of the following two surfaces in LaTeX? I have used the following codes as a default but I am not getting acceptable output. Is it possible to create a form to find its intersection points in LaTeX? Thanks a lot. \documentclass[border=3.14mm]{standalone} \usepackage{pgfplots} \pgfplotsset{compat=1.16} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis}[domain=0.01:30,xlabel=$x$] \addplot3[surf,domain={0:1},color=green]{x^3+y^3}; \addplot3[surf,domain={0:1},color=red]{(x*(1-y^2)^(.5)+y*(1-x^2)^(.5))^3}; \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture} \end{document}

Lately I have been using chktex quite a lot for ensuring consistency of my LaTeX files. One question I have is: is it possible to configure it to behave better with beamer overlay specifications. For instance: when I write \visible<.(1)>{text} currently, I get a warning 36. You should put a space in front of parenthesis But clearly, this is not intended inside an overlay specification <>. Is it possible to disable warnings specifically inside such specifications (without disabling this warning in the entire file or on a line-based basis)?

How can I read out numbers from a list, say \def\pList{0.1, 1/6, 0.25, 0.4} (or array, say \def\pListArray{{\pList}}), with xint? Background: I want to keep fractions, like 1/6 in it's original form (not decimal value 0.1666 here). On the other hand, I need to calc 1-<value> too, and I want, in the case of 1/6 the value 5/6 (=1 - 1/6). I have a main document with a lot of xint content and calculations; therefore, for consistency reasons, it should be done with xint (it's clear that there are other packages or methods for this); and: There must be a method in the xint-package that I can't find in the manual. Does anybody know? \documentclass[margin=5pt, varwidth]{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \usepackage{xintexpr} \begin{document} \def\pList{0.1, 1/6, 0.25, 0.4}% List \def\pListArray{{\pList}} \section{The pList} \pList \section{pgfmath-test for fraction-readout (bad)} p=\pgfmathprint{\pListArray[0]}, q=\pgfmathprint{1-\pListArray[0]} good.

I'm considering buying a laptop with the Snapdragon X/X+ chip (such as Dell Inspiron 5441 or HP Omnibook 5). I believe the OS will be Windows 11 ARM. I heard of compatibility issues with certain apps and games, so I am asking to double check : Will I be able to install MikTex and work with Texniccenter as usual ? I know I can work on overleaf, but it's important for me to be able to work offline. Thanks very much !

\bmod seems to behave differently in text style and script style (here is just an example, in reality I am writing it on the arrow of a commutative diagram). Am I using this command in a wrong way?

Adopting the code from this answer and the linked answers, I would like to be able to adjusting the kerning between math characters (notably the spacing around parentheses/brackets). However, the code seems not to be always effective. For instance, in the following example, the configuration between (/[ and 𝑓 is working, but the kerning between characters (like 𝑓 and 𝑓, 𝑐 and 𝑓) does not work; if one uncomment the line \setmathfont[RawFeature=+mathcharkern]{Asana-Math.otf}... (i.e., using symbols from one font, and using characters from another font), then the specified kerning between 𝑐 and 𝑓 appears to work; but the kerning between (/[ and 𝑓 now fail to work, and the kerning between characters 𝑓 and 𝑓 still don't work. Is there perhaps something wrong in my configuration? Why cannot this code work as expected in general, and how to make it work in all situations? \documentclass{article} \usepackage{showkerning} \RequirePackage{luacode} \begin{luacode*} fonts.handlers.otf.addfeature { name = "mathcharkern", type = "kern", data = { ["("] = { ["𝑓"] = 300, }, ["["] = { ["𝑓"] = 300, }, ["𝑓"] = { ["𝑓"] = 500, }, ["𝑐"] = { -- c ["𝑓"] = 500, }, }, } \end{luacode*} \usepackage{unicode-math} \setmathfont[RawFeature=+mathcharkern]{KpMath-Regular.otf} % \setmathfont[RawFeature=+mathcharkern]{Asana-Math.otf}[range={it/{Latin,latin},bfit/{Latin,latin},up/num,bfup/num}] \begin{document} % \addfontfeature{+mathcharkern} \( (ff) \) \( [ff] \) \( cf \) \end{document} Modified code based on Clea F.

The arXiv is now producing very nicely formatted html output from uploaded papers using LaTeXML. I would like to produce similarly nice html for making accessible class notes and problem sets. However, running LaTeXML locally produces fairly ugly looking output: How do I produce html output that looks similar to arXiv's output? I could not find a github or documentation on exactly what the arXiv does to get LaTeXML to look nice.

I'm trying to answer Animating light entry and radiation in a blackbody cavity, but am getting an error that I don't recognize. It's treating hit\hit as a function instead of a node name. It works if I just write it with numbers instead of with \hit. Yes, I know some of my conventions are wrong (e.g., by using one letter macro names). I would fix that after fixing my error which prompted this question. !

I currently have the following simple setup for producing commutative diagrams using tikzcd and exporting them to .svg's, following the two most popular answers on this question: Put the code for the diagram in a standalone tex file. Compile. Convert to .svg using dvisvgm. This... works, mostly (better ideas are warmly welcome), but I'm running into one issue in particular that is slightly annoying. Consider the following example: \documentclass[crop,tikz]{standalone} \usetikzlibrary{cd} \begin{document} \begin{tikzcd} & & & \{1\} \ar[dd] \ar[dl] \\ \{0\} \ar[rr] \ar[dd] & & \{0, 1\} \\ & \{2\} \ar[dl] \ar[rr] & & \{1, 2\} \ar[dl] \\ \{0, 2\} \ar[rr] & & \{0, 1, 2\} \ar[from=uu, crossing over] \end{tikzcd} \end{document} If you compile this, the resulting pdf looks like this: Great, that looks fantastic. But if you now go and run dvisvgm yourfilenamehere.dvi and drop the resulting svg into something with a non-white background, you get this: This is bad for two obvious reasons: Text and background color are way too similar, and the crossing over arrow now lives on top of a white box. This box is an artifact of the way crossing over works, which simply adds a preaction to the arrow path that draws a background color colored rectangle. Consequently, both problems can be avoided by setting color and background color to something that works, see e.g. this answer. Suppose now, however, that I don't know what color the background of the document/website/etc. the svg will be embedded in has. Perhaps I know that it's going to be a dark background, so that setting the text color to white will take care of the first issue, but unless I know the precise shade of the background I can't set the crossing over box' color to perfectly match. My question, thus, is whether there is a (nice) way to solve this second issue when the final background color is not precisely known (if you have a way to dynamically alter the text color, I'd be happy to hear about it as well). (By "nice" here I mean that e.g. it's obviously possible to draw the two "pieces" of the arrow being crossed over separately and avoid crossing over entirely, but this seems to annoying to do in general unless there is some way to package it up into a flexible macro/tikz key).

I am trying to explore how robust Typst is as an alternative to LaTeX by trying to convert some documents from LaTeX to Typst. One limitation I ran into is fonts, as some fonts standard to some mathematical circles aren't built into the Typst compiler. Moreover, Typst only accesses external fonts through .ttf and .otf files, which means any fonts that don't have versions with these files aren't gonna be able to make the jump, or at least not easily. Case in point, the mathrsfs font, used for things like Schwartz spaces or spaces of distributions in Distribution theory, or Lagrangian and Hamiltonian density in Quantum Field Theory, doesn't have .otf or .ttf files, as seen here. Now, as outlined in this post, there is a way to convert it from .pfb to .otf using Font Forge. However, kerning doesn't work for basic characters or subscripts/superscripts. Thus, did the conversion from .pfb to .otf destroy built-in kerning information, or does LaTeX store kerning information somewhere else, because kerning works just fine in LaTeX with \mathscr? EDIT: Okay, I've learned that the .afm files also provided in the same location are what hold the kerning information for the font.

I suppose it could be the sizing of the bounding boxes, but if that's so, why is Typst having issues?

I was looking at this post (pgfplots stacked bar plot: distance to axis, padding between bars) and was wondering how to add the value of each stacked segment directly in the middle of its corresponding bar. For example, for “Something else”, if the value associated with “Transfer” is 5, how can that 5 be placed in the centre of the red segment? The MWE: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{xcolor} \usepackage{tikz} \usepackage{pgfplots} \definecolor{transfertoserver}{HTML}{D7191C} \definecolor{database}{HTML}{FDAE61} \definecolor{transfertoclient}{HTML}{ABDDA4} \definecolor{rendering}{HTML}{2B83BA} \begin{document} \begin{figure} \centering \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis}[ xbar stacked, legend style={ legend columns=4, at={(xticklabel cs:0.5)}, anchor=north, draw=none }, ytick=data, axis y line*=none, axis x line*=bottom, tick label style={font=\footnotesize}, legend style={font=\footnotesize}, label style={font=\footnotesize}, xtick={0,5,10,15,20,25}, width=.8\textwidth, bar width=6mm, xlabel={Time in Seconds}, yticklabels={Database Optimizations, Reference Timing, Something Else}, xmin=0, xmax=25, area legend, y=8mm, enlarge y limits={abs=0.625}, ] \addplot[transfertoserver,fill=transfertoserver] coordinates % Transfer {(0.38,0) (0.38,1) (5,2)}; \addplot[database,fill=database] coordinates % Database {(2.4,0) (9.66,1)(5,2)}; \addplot[transfertoclient,fill=transfertoclient] coordinates % Transfer {(0.23,0) (0.23,1)(5,2)}; \addplot[rendering,fill=rendering] coordinates % Rendering {(14.66,0) (14.66,1)(5,2)}; \legend{Transfer,Database,Transfer,Rendering} \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture} \caption{Performance Benefit by Database Optimizations} \label{fig:performance:database} \end{figure} \end{document}

When I use the changes package, its commands like \deleted and \added don't work through all environments. For example: the deleted command doesn't work when an equation environment is within it. I found some methods to fix this by using something like \setdeletedmarkup{\textcolor{red}{#1}}. However this doesn't always work (itemize for example errors out). Is there a way to make text enclosed by this command (not necessarily with the changes packages, but I prefer it) a specific color across all environments? Edit: MWE: \documentclass[]{article} \usepackage{changes} \usepackage{amsmath} \setdeletedmarkup{{\color{red} #1}} \begin{document} \deleted{ Text 1 \begin{equation} a + b = c \end{equation} Text 2 } \end{document}

Is it possible to reposition reledmac footnotes to the position of regular footnotes at the bottom of the page on all pages? In the following MWE, (only) on the last page, the footnotes are placed immediately below the text block instead of above the footer, as can be seen in the attached image. \documentclass{book} \usepackage{lipsum} \usepackage{reledmac} \begin{document} A\footnoteA{a} \begin{quote} \lipsum[1] \end{quote} \lipsum[1-4] A\footnoteA{a} \end{document} Following the advice in https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/752571/, I have tried including \beforenotesX[A]{0pt plus 1fil}% or rather 1fill which does indeed reposition the notes to the bottom of the page on all pages. Unfortunately, however, this solution also introduces a page break immediately after the quote environment, which is not desired.

What is the best way to style several columns in a systematic way, say column names like p1, p2,... and maybe other styles. I tried a foreach-loop, but this does not work. In the image below the current output is shown on the left, and my preferred output is shown on the right. The manual way (as seen below in the column 'No') is clear. However, I have a variable number of columns (the real data comes from a csv file) so I cannot add all column names manually. \documentclass[margin=5pt, varwidth]{standalone} \usepackage{pgfplotstable} \pgfplotsset{compat=1.18} \begin{document} % Has no effect ==================== \foreach \RowNo in {1,...,5}{ \pgfplotstableset{ columns/\RowNo/.style={column name=p\RowNo}, }}% =========================== \pgfplotstabletypeset[col sep=comma, columns/0/.style={column name=No}, ]{ 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 2, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 3, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 } \end{document}

I know that I can make circular diagrams with the nice smartdiagram package, but arrows do not fit perfectly in a imaginary circle. In fact, the diagram is far from a circle when there are only two or three nodes: \documentclass{standalone} \usepackage{smartdiagram} \begin{document} \smartdiagramset{ connection color=red, module shape= circle, circular distance=2cm, uniform color list=white for 6 items, uniform arrow color=true, arrow color=black} \smartdiagram[circular diagram:clockwise]{foo, bar} \end{document} I know also that there are several examples in this site about making circular diagrams without this package, but translating these examples to diagrams with a different numbers of nodes is complex, so I tried an automated solution with tikz (without really knowing what I was doing, I have to admit) so that I only have to modify a list of nodes in \mylist and little more to obtain the result: \documentclass[border=2mm]{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[ > = Stealth, every node/.style = {circle, draw, thick, minimum width=1cm, align=center} ] \def\mylist{foo, bar, baz} % play with this \foreach \x [count=\i from 1] in \mylist {\xdef\n{\i}} \def\radio{2cm} % and this if needed \foreach \texto [count=\i from 0] in \mylist{ \pgfmathsetmacro\ang{-\i*360/\n} \node (n\i) at (\ang:\radio) {\texto}; } \foreach \dummy [count=\i from 0] in \mylist{ \pgfmathsetmacro\j{int(mod(\i+1,\n))} \pgfmathsetmacro\angini{-\i*360/\n} \pgfmathsetmacro\angfin{-\j*360/\n} \pgfmathsetmacro\outang{mod(\angini - 90 + 720, 360)} \pgfmathsetmacro\inang {mod(\angfin + 90 + 720, 360)} \draw[->, thick, line width=1.4pt] (n\i) to[out=\outang, in=\inang, looseness=.9] (n\j); % and with the looseness } \end{tikzpicture} \end{document} Mainly it works. The problem is that like in smartdiagram, the arrows don't perfectly follow an imaginary circle, that was the idea behind getting involved in this business. Playing with looseness is possible to correct a bit the curvature of the arrows, but it's tedious and the result is never perfect. So, the result should be ideally near to the image below (that I modified manually in Inkscape) and still require minimal settings to adapt the code to diagrams of n nodes. Fixes of the MWE as well as alternative approaches are welcome. Edit Thank you all for the excellent suggestions. This time, I am truly sorry I can only accept one.

How can I add horizontal arguments (p1, p2, ... [which will later become calculations]) to a newwrite using a loop? A loop doesn't seem to be allowed in \immediate\write\MyFile{...}. \documentclass[varwidth, border=10pt]{standalone} \usepackage{pgfplotstable} \pgfplotsset{compat=1.18} \begin{document} \def\OutFileName{mydata.csv} \newwrite\MyFile \immediate\openout\MyFile=\OutFileName \foreach \n in {2,4}{%% n foreach %%% \foreach \k in {0,...,\n}{% k foreach %%% \immediate\write\MyFile{\n, \k %\foreach \p in {1,2}{, \p} % DOES NOT WORK } }% end of k foreach %%% }%% end of n foreach %%% \immediate\closeout\MyFile %\input{\OutFileName}% Test \pgfplotstableread[col sep=comma]{\OutFileName}{\bcdTable} \section{Table} \pgfplotstabletypeset[ columns/0/.style={column name=$n$}, columns/1/.style={column name=$k$}, columns/2/.style={column name=$p1$},% just missing columns/3/.style={column name=$p2$},% just missing ]{\bcdTable} \end{document}

Using the code adopted from this answer, I am able to modify the position and width of \check, \widehat, etc. for various math characters (as a first step towards answering this earlier question). However, as one can see, the letters are not "centered" in the bounding box. As a result, the spacing between different letters and symbols appears strange. (For example, to make the symbols on top placed at right place, I have to move the letters via xoffset, but then its position relative to the bounding box is not quite appropriate.) With the keywords known to me as in that answer, it seems one could only move the letter, but not its bounding box. Is there some other keywords one could use in order to have more control over this situation? (Actually, just out of curiosity, may I also ask where can one find a list of available keywords/switches that can be tweaked?) Below is a MWE. \documentclass{article} \usepackage{kpfonts-otf} \usepackage{unicode-math} \usepackage{luacode} \begin{luacode*} local adjustments = { ["Asana-Math.otf"] = { ["𝐿"] = { xoffset = 0.03, -- yoffset = -0.5, width = 0.75, -- height = 0.5, -- depth = 0, }, ["𝑀"] = { xoffset = -0.05, -- yoffset = -0.5, width = 0.9, -- height = 0.5, -- depth = 0, }, ["𝑁"] = { xoffset = -0.05, -- yoffset = -0.5, width = 0.9, -- height = 0.5, -- depth = 0, }, } } do local data = io.loaddata(kpse.find_file("font-cff.lmt")) data = data:gsub("<const>", ""):gsub("pack_result_tagged =", "fonts.handlers.otf.pack_result_tagged =") load(data, "font-cff.lua", "t", luaotfload.fontloader)() end luatexbase.add_to_callback( "luaotfload.patch_font", function(tfmdata, specification, font_id) local path = tfmdata.specification.filename local filename = file.basename(path) local by_filename = adjustments[filename] if not by_filename then return end tfmdata.streamprovider = 1 local size = tfmdata.size local units_per_em = tfmdata.units_per_em for character, adjustment in pairs(by_filename) do local codepoint = utf8.codepoint(character) local index = tfmdata.characters[codepoint].index local character = tfmdata.characters[codepoint] local shapes = fonts.hashes.shapes[font_id].glyphs local streams = fonts.hashes.streams[font_id].streams local original_shape = shapes[index] local new_stream = fonts.handlers.otf.pack_result_tagged( original_shape.segments, original_shape.width, (adjustment.xoffset or 0) * units_per_em, -(adjustment.yoffset or 0) * units_per_em ) streams[index] = new_stream for _, dimen in pairs { "width", "height", "depth" } do if adjustment[dimen] then character[dimen] = adjustment[dimen] * size end end end end, "rewrite-characters" ) \end{luacode*} \setmathfont{Asana-Math.otf}[range={it/{Latin,latin},bfit/{Latin,latin},up/num,bfup/num}] \begin{document} \[ \check{L} \check{M} \check{N} \] \[ \widehat{L} \widehat{M} \widehat{N} \] \[ \widetilde{L} \widetilde{M} \widetilde{N} \] \fbox{\( L \)} \fbox{\( \check{L} \)} \fbox{\( \widehat{L} \)} \fbox{\( M \)} \fbox{\( \check{M} \)} \fbox{\( \widehat{M} \)} \fbox{\( N \)} \fbox{\( \check{N} \)} \fbox{\( \widehat{N} \)} \end{document}

The question is rather simple. How to obtain the following big asterisk symbol? I apologize if it is duplicate. Thank you very much.

I want to do something like this : display binary operation evaluation in different ways (decomposing the binary evaluation in two unary evaluation, etc) with a much simple syntax, i.e. : Here I use postfix and infix notation for function applications, for example : in row 7 of this table, (c1 → c2) can be decomposed into c2 (c1 → _) , in which (c1 → _) is the first unary application (marked with blue framed box), c2 (c1 → _) is the second one (marked with blue framed box); and Homo stands for the Hom functor, Expo stands for Exponent operation in Cartesian Closed Category. However the compilation tooks so much time, I think I use too much \csname...\endcsname, \@ifnextchar and so on. Seeking for better solution like expl3 or LuaLaTeX.

What I’m trying to accomplish is best illustrated as follows: The first line (“Monday, December 22, 2025, 16:00 EST”) is right-aligned to the text width (possibly by \hfill, but not a hard requirement). The second line (“New York City, New York”) needs to be left-aligned to the left edge of that first line. In other words, the start of the M in “Monday” and N in “New York” are vertically aligned. How can this be done?

in the following code and in the attached image, the graph becomes misaligned. Could you please give me an idea on how to fix it? \documentclass{article} \usepackage{graphicx} % Required for inserting images \newcommand{\ocultar}[1]{} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{pdfpages} \usepackage{hyperref} \usepackage{pgfplots} \pgfplotsset{compat=1.18} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[spanish]{babel} \usetikzlibrary{angles, quotes} \usepackage{fancyhdr} \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{array} \begin{document} \begin{center} \begin{tabular}{>{\centering}m{5cm} >{\centering}m{5cm} >{\centering}m{5cm}} % CRECIENTE \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis}[ axis lines=middle, xmin=-3,xmax=6, ymin=-3,ymax=6, grid=both, width=5cm, height=5cm, ticks=none ] \addplot[red, thick] {x+1}; \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture} & % DECRECIENTE \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis}[ axis lines=middle, xmin=-3,xmax=6, ymin=-3,ymax=6, grid=both, width=5cm, height=5cm, ticks=none ] \addplot[blue, thick] {-x+3}; \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture} & % CONSTANTE \begin{tikzpicture} \begin{axis}[ axis lines=middle, xmin=-3,xmax=6, ymin=-3,ymax=6, grid=both, width=5cm, height=5cm, ticks=none ] \addplot[black, thick] {3}; \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture} \\[2mm] \fbox{\begin{minipage}{4.5cm} \centering \textbf{Creciente.}\\ En este caso su pendiente\\ es \textcolor{red}{\textbf{POSITIVA}.} \end{minipage}} & \fbox{\begin{minipage}{4.5cm} \centering \textbf{Decreciente.}\\ En este caso su pendiente\\ es \textcolor{blue}{\textbf{NEGATIVA}.} \end{minipage}} & \fbox{\begin{minipage}{4.5cm} \centering \textbf{Constante.}\\ En este caso su pendiente\\ es \textbf{CERO}. \end{minipage}} \end{tabular} \end{center} \end{document}

I'm creating a math worksheet for my Algebra 2 students with a two-column problem layout using longtable. I'm experiencing two related spacing issues with my step by step solutions layout: Inconsistent spacing before solution steps: Problems 1-4 (outside longtable) have tight spacing between the problem statement and solution steps, while problems 5-8 (inside longtable) have much larger spacing before the solution steps. Answer boxes crowding next row: In the two-column section, answer boxes at the bottom of cells are too close to the problem statements in the next table row. What I've tried: Adjusting \par\vspace values (made page 1 worse) Using \vskip instead of \par\vspace (broke page 1 alignment) Modifying \arraystretch and \extrarowheight (affected all rows uniformly, not the issue) Question: How can I achieve consistent vertical spacing before the solutionsteps environment both inside and outside longtable, while preventing answer boxes from crowding the next table row?

I have the following LaTeX code, and in the middle plot (the decreasing function) I cannot remove the letters “ccc” that appear on the graph.

Obviously I tried "& and \& : \index{key@A "& B} and the like, but it does not work.

I am trying to use \setkomafont to set the font of titles and headings, but when I try to use a custom font with \fontspec or \fontfamily, it overrides \bfseries instead of applying them both. So, when I use the command below, it only applies Roboto and the font size: \setkomafont{title}{\fontspec{Roboto}...} Other similar commands that I have tried but didn't work: \setkomafont{title}{\fontfamily{Roboto}...} % \setkomafont{title}{\fontfamily{Helvetica}...} % \setkomafont{title}{\fontfamily{Montserrat}...} % etc, etc When I use each of these commands alone, it also works fine \setkomafont{title}{...\bfseries\selectfont} % and \setkomafont{title}{\fontspec{Roboto}...\selectfont} As expected, the first command applies the bold font and the second command applies the Roboto font. A non-exhaustive list of l tried trying to fix this problem (we're just going to use \fontspec{Roboto} in all of them for simplicities sake I've gone insane enough. Just know that I tried many fonts in both koma-script and fontspec): \setkomafont{title}{{\fontspec{Roboto}}...\bfseries} \setkomafont{title}{{\fontspec{Roboto}}...\bfseries} % \setkomafont{title}{\fontspec{Roboto}{...\bfseries\selectfont}} % \setkomafont{title}{...\bfseries} \addtokomafont{title}{\fontspec{Roboto}} % \setkomafont{title}{\fontspec{Roboto}...} \addtokomafont{title}{\bfseries} % This one got rid of the font and made it bold instead XDDDDDDDDDDD I also went in Windows Shell to look at the luaotfload-tool package and force it to update after looking through the fontspec manual. I did not find anything being discussed in the KOMA-script manual or the The Not So Short Introduction to LaTeX, but I didn't do a thorough search. Edit: After digging through my File Explorer, I found out what the issue was. On Windows 11, "Roboto Regular" (Roboto-Regular.ttf) doesn't have any bold fonts in it nor are there any .ttf files with bold Roboto. This means only that Windows only has the upright font available for fontspec to work with. You need to download the font and tell fontspec where it is by creating a new font family in order for it to work. Working command: \newfontfamily\RobotoPre[Path = .../CustomFonts/, UprightFont = Roboto-VariableFont_wdth-wght.ttf, ItalicFont = Roboto-Italic-VariableFont_wdth-wght.ttf]{Roboto} \DeclareRobustCommand{\Roboto}{\RobotoPre} \setkomafont{title}{{\Roboto}\bfseries ...\selectfont} I got the font off of Google fonts. For bold fonts, it is included in the upright font files. Make sure you delete or change the comma in the file. Thank you for everyone in the comments who helped!

I need to draw a pulley system as in the figure. How can I do that? Specific information about the figure: A block of mass Mo is on a horizontal surface and attached by a string to a hanging block, also of mass Mo , as shown in the figure. Friction between the block and the horizontal surface is negligible. The masses of the string and pulley are negligible, and the pulley can rotate with negligible friction around its axle.
