  • Wow, that looks amazing! It's slightly awkward to fit lambda prime in the box, but \lambda\!' looks reasonable. Commented Apr 13, 2020 at 15:08
  • @Nathaniel Thanks! Yes, I also thought that with the negative space, the λ' would look ok. I didn't test it so much for other symbols, but I figured there was enough space left with most letters to fit a prime in there. Were you looking for something with capital letters also?

  • No, this is great, it's perfect! Commented Apr 13, 2020 at 15:31
  • Letters with descenders, inside the box, are raised above the main baseline by the depth of the descender. Is this really what's wanted? Commented Apr 13, 2020 at 20:49
  • @barbarabeeton personally I like it, because otherwise the descender would protrude out of the box and it wouldn't read as a box with the letter drawn on it. (Then again I haven't seen what a baseline aligned version would look like.) Commented Apr 13, 2020 at 21:15
