Subject: Problems with superscripts and macros
Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2003 14:52:31 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49DF6D41-1905-11D8-AA95-000393B6680C@sonnemans.net> (raw)
Hello
I am having some big problems with superscripts. When I type:
-20$^\circ$C
I get the expected 20 degrees Celcius (-20oC)
However if I put the same sequence in a macro
\def\celcius{$^\circ$C}
-20\celsius\ Dewpoint
-20\celsius Dewpoint
I get as result:
-20 oCDewpoint
-20DoCewpoint
Where o symbolizes the degree symbol.
What is going on, and more importantly how to solve it.
Best Regards,
Frank
