The American Mathematical Society created a simple chalk-style blackboard bold typeface in 1985 to go with the AMS-TeX package created by Michael Spivak, accessed using the \Bbb command (for "blackboard bold"); in 1990, the AMS released an update with a new inline-style blackboard bold font intended to better match Times.

The styled characters are mostly located in the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block, but the 24 characters in cells with a pink background are located in the letterlike symbols block, for example, ℛ (script capital r) is at U+211B rather than the expected U+1D4AD which is reserved.
Mathematical OpenType typefaces have significant coverage of the symbols defined in the Unicode Technical Report #25 (Unicode Support for Mathematics), and provide advanced layout features using the MATH OpenType table and math OpenType script supported by Office 2007. They have been added to the ISO OpenType standard in April 2014 .
Belleek is a metrically identical (but significantly different in shape) free replacement font for MathTime 1.x. [12] Belleek was released by TrueTeX (Richard Kinch) in 1998. [13] TM Math by MicroPress is another commercial math font; STIX fonts, XTIS, and TeX Gyre Termes are Times-style math fonts released for free and/or under open source ...
The STIX Fonts project or Scientific and Technical Information Exchange (STIX), is a project sponsored by several leading scientific and technical publishers to provide, under royalty-free license, a comprehensive font set of mathematical symbols and alphabets, intended to serve the scientific and engineering community for electronic and print publication.
MathJax renders math in most popular browsers, including Internet Explorer 6+, Firefox 3+, Google Chrome 0.3+, Safari 2.0+, Opera 9.5+, iPhone/iPad Safari, and the Android browser. Some older versions of browsers do not support web fonts (with the @font-face CSS construct), so they have to use MathJax image font mode. The browser compatibility ...

The use of Unicode characters for blackboard bold is discouraged in English Wikipedia; instead, either the LaTeX rendering (for example <math>\mathbb{Z}</math> or <math>\Z</math>) or standard bold fonts should be used. As with all such choices, each article should be consistent with itself, and editors should not change articles from one choice ...
