The `textcomp` extension implements the old ``textcomp`` style package from
LaTeX.  The macros of the package are now part of LaTeX's base package. The
`textcomp` extension provides a number of text macros that can be used in math
mode as well. See the `CTAN page <https://www.ctan.org/pkg/textcomp>`__ for
more information and documentation of `textcomp`.

This package is not autoloaded, so you must request it explicitly if you want to
use it.  To load the `textcomp` extension, add ``'[tex]/textcomp'`` to the
``load`` array of the ``loader`` block of your MathJax configuration, and add
``'textcomp'`` to the ``packages`` array of the ``tex`` block.  The macros
provided in `textcomp` can be used equally in math and text mode. In order to
make them available in text mode they have to be explicitly added to the
packages of the `textmacros` extension.


.. code-block:: javascript

   window.MathJax = {
     loader: {load: ['[tex]/textmacros', '[tex]/textcomp']},
     tex: {packages: {'[+]': ['textmacros']}}
     textmacros: {packages: {'[+]': ['textcomp']}}
   };



Alternatively, use ``\require{textcomp}`` in a TeX expression to load it
dynamically from within the math on the page, if the `require`
extension is loaded.
