Using the package enumitem I can edit my enumerations to use roman numerals, so that



beginenumerate[label=textsctextsc(roman*)]
item A
item B
item C
item D
endenumerate


yields the expected



(I) A
(II) B
(III) C
(IV) D


but in computer modern with nice formatting bits. How can I change this so that (IV) becomes (IIII) instead?

  • @albert Some clocks which are numbered with roman numerals use IIII instead of IV, so it's a one-time exception. The rest remains as it is.

  • Might be valid for some clocks (I don't see a reference to a clock in the question though), but this looks like a more general question to me.

    Based on https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/300215/36296, you could something like this:



    documentclassarticle
    usepackageenumitem

    makeatletter
    newcountmy@repeat@count
    newcommandmyrepeat[2]%
    begingroup
    my@repeat@count=z@
    @whilenummy@repeat@count<#1do#2advancemy@repeat@count@ne%
    endgroup

    makeatother

    begindocument


    beginenumerate[label=(textscprotectmyrepeatvalue*I)]
    item A
    item B
    item C
    item D
