LaTeX \p⋯ Commands for Printing Characters

LaTeX uses backslash+p⋯ combination to print characters.

\p⋯ Commands

The typical \p⋯ Commands for Printing Characters are LaTeX CommandsRemarksMode \Pprints a pilcrow sign, ¶. \parallelprints a parallel to, ∥.math mode \partialprints a partial differential, ∂.math mode \perpprints a perpendicular, ⟂.math mode \phiprints a Greek small letter phi, φ.math mode \Phiprints a Greek capital letter phi, Φ.math mode \piprints a Greek small letter pi, π.math mode \Piprints a Greek capital letter pi, Π.math mode \pmprints a plus-minus sign, ±.math mode \pmodprints a parenthesized modulo expression. e.g. b\pmod{a} is b (mod a).math mode \poundsprints a pound sign, £. \Prprints math, Pr.math mode \precprints a precedes, ≺.math mode \preceqprints a precedes above single-line equals sign, ⪯.math mode \primeprints a prime, ′.math mode \prodprints a prime, ∏.math mode \proptoprints a proportional to, ∝.math mode \psiprints a Greek small letter psi, ψ.math mode \Psiprints a Greek capital letter psi, Ψ.math mode
