I have been trying to typeset the character GREEK LETTER KOPPA. It has not been working. I know the Unicode number (U+03DE), and tried the command ^^3de and ^^3DE. Neither worked. I also tried char and char", but those didn't work either, other symbols get produced.

Does anybody have an idea as to how I can get my computer to typeset the symbol Ϟ?

If you have a font on your system that you know has that character you can use a package such as fontspec or mathspec to typeset your document (either whole or part, as you prefer) in that font.

  Fair enough. For what it's worth, some Google fonts that support that character are Noto Serif, Cardo and Tinos (all serif; some sans serif ones are Noto Sans, Fira Sans and Arimo).

  @rensemil: I think this message is for me. It's unrelated to your question.@Sebastiano>. I've found it this morning (grazie tante!), but didn't have time to look at your link. I've taken alook this evening. It seems to be a command to obtain delimiters still larger than Bigg. I dihad never heard of this construct, but I'm no guru.

  @rensemil: I think this message is for me. It's unrelated to your question.@Sebastiano>. I've found it this morning (grazie tante!), but didn't have time to look at your link. I've taken alook this evening. It seems to be a command to obtain delimiters still larger than Bigg. I dihad never heard of this construct, but I'm no guru.

You have it in the cm-unicode fonts, to be used with xelatex. They also have the archaic koppa. If you can type it directly on your keyboard, XeLaTeX will understand it. Other than that I defined two commands to obtain them (note the hexadecimal code is not the official unicode hexadecimal number):

documentclass[12pt]article
usepackagefontspec
setmainfontCMU Serif
defkoppachar "03DF
defarchaickoppachar "03D9

begindocument

koppa: qquad LARGEkoppaqquad ϟ

normalsize archaic koppa: qquadarchaickoppaqquad ϙ


enddocument
