Many APL glyphs can be approximated by overlaying or juxtaposing two ASCII characters. [[ngn/apl]]'s scripted demo interface, [https://abrudz.github.io/lb/apl Adám Brudzewsky's in-browser language bar], and [[TryAPL]]'s web interface allow such a pair of characters and hitting the <kbd>Tab↹</kbd> key to replace them with the corresponding APL character. For example, <kbd><</kbd>,<kbd>-</kbd>,<kbd>Tab↹</kbd> will insert <syntaxhighlight lang=apl inline>←</syntaxhighlight> and <kbd>T</kbd>,<kbd>o</kbd>,<kbd>Tab↹</kbd> will insert <syntaxhighlight lang=apl inline>⍕</syntaxhighlight>.

Depending on whether you want the whole document to use the APL font or not, you may remove the command to set the main font. If you do so, APL glyphs will be rendered correctly inside code listings and similar environments, but not in the main body of the document.

==== Metafont ====
An APL metafont usable to typeset APL in LaTeX files is available on the ([https://ctan.org/pkg/apl?lang=en Comprehensive TeX Archive Network]), available for free use.
The version of the package is from 1987 and may not be suitable for glyphs used in modern APL implementations..
