Note that symb-uni is part of the main distro now, and you probably should set my earlier version of the file aside. You could redefine \USymbChar after \usesymbols[uni]: \def\USymbChar#1#2{% \scale[sx=0.8,sy=0.8]{\uchar#1#2}} \let\USymbCharTwo\USymbChar \let\USymbCharZapf\USymbChar (untested, inelegant) -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
