I found a symbol I wanted to use in the documentation of the amsfonts package, it's in Appendix D, font eurm10, symbol 1F. I wanted to use it with some command, sort of like \newcommand{\xmark}{symbol here}, but I don't know how I can do this. I found this answer, however, they use the symbol to replace another math symbol, which is not what I want, I want to use it in the middle of normal text.

Does anybody know how I could do this? I appreciate your help.

Call the suitable font.

\documentclass{article}

\newcommand{\xmark}{{\usefont{U}{eur}{m}{n}\symbol{"1F}}}

\begin{document}

This is the xmark: \xmark

\end{document}
