Hello,
I have a few questions.
1. What is the best way to get a symbol from a font you are not using as
your main?
e.g.
\definefontsynonym [MySymFont] [file:MySymFont.ttf]
\definesymbol[cedis][\getglyphstyled{MySymFont}{\tochar{x:20B5}}]
\def\cedis{\symbol[cedis]}
or just
\def\cedis{{\definedfont[MySymFont*default]\tochar{x:20B5}}}
\definesymbol[cedis][\utfchar{“20B5}]
\def\cedis{
\switchtobodyfont[dejavu]\tf\symbol[cedis]
}
I have GH\cedis 10.00 in my pocket
Don’t use \switchtobodyfont for a single character.
For such cases, a fallback font is probably better.
\definefontfallback
[symbolfallback]
[name:MySymFont]
[0x20B5]% can also be a list or range
[check=yes,force=no]
\definetypeface [MyMainFamily]
[rm] [serif] [palatino]
[default][fallbacks=symbolfallback]

2. I would like a more robust method to create a diagram (ie., a series
of input and outputs where you are then required to tell the rule of the
mapping). The inputs will be up with the outputs below and a downward
pointing arrow between them.
Sorry, can’t help you here.
Better don’t mix different subjects in one message.
