AI Thread Summary
The command \nmid is not displaying correctly in the preview pane for some users, although it works fine in the final PDF output. Users have identified that the issue may stem from the DVI previewers using different fonts than those in the document. To resolve the problem, it is suggested to include the package \usepackage{amssymb}. This addition has been confirmed to fix the display issue for some users. It is important to ensure that the final output, rather than the preview, is being checked for accuracy.

I'm trying to make the following command work:

\nmid

It doesn't work at all. I found other old threads over the net about people also having the same problem, but no response to those thread! Hopefully this one gets a response.

The following packages are in use...

\usepackage{latexsym}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage{amsmath}

Does not work.

Works for me, but check this out. It DOESN'T show the correct symbol in the preview plane (I'm using LeD) but when i build the pdf it works correctly. Are you looking at the pdf?
 
Try to add \usepackage{amssymb}.
 
ah yes, i was also using the assymb sty. Again though, make sure you're actually looking at the final product. For some reason most DVI previewers use a different set of fonts than the ones used in the compiler and loaded by the document.

Thanks guys, that's the correct package!
