Real number symbol (UTF-8: ℝ) in XeTeX

How can I get the 'real number' sign (something like mathbb{R} with the amssymb package in LaTeX) in XeTeX?

I see; nothing prevents you from using themsbm10font with XeTeX. In any case, if you don't set fonts, you're basically using the same setting as normal TeX.

My English is not so good, but in the exact correct way you have only one doubled rule, usual the longest one, if there are two longest one only the first. So the letter R should be IR ... You can tryusepackage{txfonts}and then ` $varmathbb{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$`. In my opinion they fit better the usual writing by hand. (Or you use a mathematical trick: I define that IIR is set of real numbers or something else ...) BTW: which symbol has D.E. Knuth used?

Well, perhaps is wrong a little bit too hard, but "in a mathematial view wrong" was ment to say, that there are usually special signs for the sets of real numbers, all numbers, numbers like 1, 2, 3 (German ganze Zahlen, don't know in English), irrational numbers: I,N,Q,R,Z. They should only used for this purpose. The typographical view is with which font can I set the mathematical sign needed here? Which font does fit best what is needed? Now it is a matter of taste ... Or a matter of definition, for example in a section "typhographical remarks". Too excact? Remember - I'm a German :-)

You should put your symbol format definitions in another TeX file; publications tend to have their own styles, and some may use bold Roman for fields like R instead of blackboard bold. You can swap nams.tex with aom.tex. I know, this is more common with LaTeX, but the principle still applies.
For example:
% paper.tex
input nams.tex
$realnumbers$ is connected.
% nams.tex
defrealnumbers{mathbb{R}}
% more definitions for the Notices.
% aom.tex
defrealnumbers{mathbf{R}}
% more definitions for the Annals.
Just change one line in paper.tex to submit to the Annals instead of the Notices.

There's a couple of ways to go about this:
- Using the default Computer Modern -font (which, as you've already found out, can be extended with the
amssymto have access to BlackBoardBold.) - Using Unicode OpenType math fonts. Now this is a bit tricky because the glyph locations need to be (re-)told to TeX. This step can further be split into two different approaches:
- Use just one family and change the active range by re-telling TeX the glyph positions every time the style changes (i.e. script, fraktur, etc. This is the way I've understood the
unicode-math-package does it). For plain-xetex, you could do something along these lines. - Fix the styles to their own
families using mapping-files created withteckit_compilefrom SIL. See: Changing math font to OTF in XeTeX using plaintex-format.
- Use just one family and change the active range by re-telling TeX the glyph positions every time the style changes (i.e. script, fraktur, etc. This is the way I've understood the

The command produces a “Fraktur R”, which is seldom used for denoting the real numbers; it usually denotes the real part.

Well, perhaps is wrong a little bit too hard, but "in a mathematial view wrong" was ment to say, that there are usually special signs for the sets of real numbers, all numbers, numbers like 1, 2, 3 (German ganze Zahlen, don't know in English), irrational numbers: I,N,Q,R,Z. They should only used for this purpose. The typographical view is with which font can I set the mathematical sign needed here? Which font does fit best what is needed? Now it is a matter of taste ... Or a matter of definition, for example in a section "typhographical remarks". Too excact? Remember - I'm a German :-)

You should put your symbol format definitions in another TeX file; publications tend to have their own styles, and some may use bold Roman for fields like R instead of blackboard bold. You can swap nams.tex with aom.tex. I know, this is more common with LaTeX, but the principle still applies.
For example:
% paper.tex
input nams.tex
$realnumbers$ is connected.
% nams.tex
defrealnumbers{mathbb{R}}
% more definitions for the Notices.
% aom.tex
defrealnumbers{mathbf{R}}
% more definitions for the Annals.
Just change one line in paper.tex to submit to the Annals instead of the Notices.

There's a couple of ways to go about this:
- Using the default Computer Modern -font (which, as you've already found out, can be extended with the
amssymto have access to BlackBoardBold.) - Using Unicode OpenType math fonts. Now this is a bit tricky because the glyph locations need to be (re-)told to TeX. This step can further be split into two different approaches:
- Use just one family and change the active range by re-telling TeX the glyph positions every time the style changes (i.e. script, fraktur, etc. This is the way I've understood the
unicode-math-package does it). For plain-xetex, you could do something along these lines. - Fix the styles to their own
families using mapping-files created withteckit_compilefrom SIL. See: Changing math font to OTF in XeTeX using plaintex-format.
- Use just one family and change the active range by re-telling TeX the glyph positions every time the style changes (i.e. script, fraktur, etc. This is the way I've understood the

Thank you for your interest in this question.
Because it has attracted low-quality or spam answers that had to be removed, posting an answer now requires 10 reputation on this site (the association bonus does not count).
Would you like to answer one of these unanswered questions instead?

I see; nothing prevents you from using the
msbm10font with XeTeX. In any case, if you don't set fonts, you're basically using the same setting as normal TeX.– egreg
