Can anyone tell me how I can get a proper internal diameter symbol without having to add a whole maths alphabet (which appears to be what wasysym and mathabx do)? I don't have space for another maths alphabet!


In which environment or situation do you want to use it? Is ø enough? It's LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH STROKE at U+00F8 (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER O WITH STROKE, Ø, is at U+00D8).
I could make my peace with that if need be - it's just likely that some /real/ engineers will read what I am writing, and it's possible that I might end up attracting avoidable red pen.
Or are you looking for EMPTY SET, ∅, at U+2205? DIAMETER SIGN, ⌀, is at U+2300.
The latter is the one that I am after, but I know that my main body font doesn't include it. Is there a decent font which does? I'm looking to match with Chaparral Pro, if that's possible.
