Yes, that was it, thank you. Now when I run it it gives me... ...

Also, it keeps the different kinds of shapes on independent axes, so I can say: \it 123 \in 456 \bd 238 \rm 909 to get the numbers set in: italic; italic inferiors; bold italic inferiors; bold roman inferiors, because I also have the weight and width on separate axes.
