Mathematical Symbol in Illustrator

[wjgrayson]

I'm using Illustrator CS1, PC.

I can't seem to figure out how to make the math symbol <, > in Illustrator. I've looked under all the character sets / fonts including wingdings & webdings to find it.

Typing the "<" and then drawing a line under it almost works, but it always looks out of proportion and the line and character don't stay together if I increase or decrease size.

Is there an ansi code for these symbols that would work?

WJ:

Look at the Glyphs palette (Type>Glyphs).

Arial, for instance, has those symbols here:

Excellent!

I have been using a Univers & Centaur font and didn't see the symbols there. It's no problems to swap in a different font for the symbol.

u rock.

Some character sets are better than others. Glad you've found the Glyphs palette useful, W.
