Symbols

[ ™ / © /®

Some weeks ago, I asked how to include the (R) (registered) and
TM (exponant Trade Mark) symbols in a document using a style (SPIE)
in which they were not defined.
I have first to apologize to those who answered for taking so
much time to reply, but, as the post told, we were in a hurry and
we've had to work hard those last weeks.
Anyway, is the summary.
The best solutions (after various tries) are:
- for (R)
\def\registered{{\ooalign{\hfil\raise .00ex\hbox{\scriptsize R}\hfil\crcr\mathhexbox20D}}
used as follow
$^\registered$
suggested by:

who holds it from:
Ulick Stafford (ulick.stafford@nd.edu)
- for (TM)
\def\tm{\leavevmode\hbox{$\rm {}^{TM}$}}
suggested by:

ptjm@io.org
Other solutions (not sorted):
- for (R)
changing the \copyright macro:
\def\registered{{\ooalign{\hfil\raise .07ex{\hbox{\sevenrm R}\hfil\crcr\mathhexbox20D}}}
or, if using postscript fonts:
\chardef\registered='256
suggested by:

%% The registered trademark symbol, a raised, circled R. We do a little
%% negative kern on each side because the edge of the circle is quite far from
%% the corner of the box.
\def\Registered{\raisebox{1ex}{\kern-.1em\setbox\@tempboxa\hbox{\footnotesize$\bigcirc$}\hbox
to 0pt{\hbox to\wd\@tempboxa{\hss\tiny R\hss}\hss}\box\@tempboxa\kern-.1em}}
suggested by:

anderson@cs.umass.edu
\def\register{{\ooalign{\hfil\raise.07ex\hbox{r}\hfil\crcr\mathhexbox20D}}}
then accessible in math mode.

- for (TM)
$^{\rm TM}$
suggested by:
Jeff Lessem
Jeff.Lessem@Colorado.EDU
if using postscript fonts:
\chardef\tm='223
suggested by:

ptjm@io.org
$^{TM}$ or $^{\tiny TM}$
suggested by:
Scott D. Anderson
anderson@cs.umass.edu
\def\trademark{{\hbox{\tiny TM}}} then accessible in math mode

So, many thanks to you Mr Anderson (and Mr Stafford), Mr McPhee,
Mr Lessem and Mr Chartre.
