diameter sign in graph

[Marc Kaulisch]

I would like to use a diameter sign (Unicode 2300) in a graph but I am not able to do so with the unicode code. Of course, using {c O/} is a good way around, but nonethless I wonder why Stata 15.1 gives me:

And with the -grtext- (from ssc) tool I get:

This does not look like the sign I want to have...The technical documentation of unicode shows that it should look like:

Is there another good way to get this original unicode diameter sign into the graph?

The font Stata is using to display output in your Results window does not include the Unicode character 2300. On my Mac, using the character set Menlo Regular, the result is as expected. Try selecting a different monospace font in Stata's preferences. You'll need to use that font in your graph as well.

Following on from William, the DejaVu Sans font will give you the symbol you want if you are using Windows
