سمك

Homework / test Arabic to English Other Government / Politics GCC Conformity Marking
% يعادل 8.5 (x) سمك الحروف
من القطر الخارخي الاكبر للشعار

This description refers to a specific diagram which I am unable to copy/paste onto here. This document is about the Gulf Conformity Mark. After للشعار in this sentence there's the symbol of "O" or zero with a diagonal on it. (I haven't been able to find that symbol in the large symbol gallery.)

You may not be able to help here for the lack of further info but thanks in advance for trying.

Nadia, if you have a direct email address, maybe you would be so kind to accept an attachment and see the diagram for yourself? Just a suggestion.
Eyal Sherf (asker) Nov 27, 2011:
I don't think "font" is right, and am not entirely sure "thickness" is either. I wish I could somehow show you that circle...
Does that sound right at all - "The thickness of the X's Equals 8.5% of the greater external diameter of the emblem ø ".
I see that the meaning is "roof, ceiling", and those X's appear at the top of the circle.......... That make sense at all?
Nadia Ayoub Nov 27, 2011:
Sorry it's Thickness
Ahmed Badawy Nov 27, 2011:
Yes, fine Nadia.
You may post "font" as you are about to post it.
Eyal Sherf (asker) Nov 27, 2011:
Thank you, that works. Perhaps you have some insight into سمك ?
Nadia Ayoub Nov 27, 2011:
Yes, You go to insert, symbol, you choose "Latin 1 supplement" and font: Palatino Linotype
Eyal Sherf (asker) Nov 27, 2011:
Thank you. I understand, but do you know how to type it using a PC?
Nadia Ayoub Nov 27, 2011:
Hi Ethan, The symbol you're describing means "diameter" (قطر)
