How can I successfully compile $\mathbb{5}$?

Question

I am a regular Overleaf user. I wanted to compile $\mathbb{5}$ . I can do it for $\mathbb{1}$ (Or like $\mathbb{1}$ ). I have read this.

I have used this set of packages alongside the other necessary packages.

\usepackage{bbm} %%(The \mathbb{} effect for 1 only)
%\usepackage{newtxmath} %%(The \mathbb{} effect for digits)
%\usepackage{unicode-math} %(Only works with LuaLatex)
\usepackage{dsfont}

The only time I have a positive return is the case when I use usepackage{newtxmath}. But when I use the package, it ruins the whole text of the pdf.

@DavidCarlisle, \mathds{5} is not working for me. – Ralph Clausen Oct 14 '20 at 10:45 — Ralph Clausen, Oct 14 '20 at 10:45
With cmathbb package in the new version of TexLive. – M.Ahmadi Oct 15 '20 at 07:44 — M.Ahmadi, Oct 15 '20 at 07:44

You could use the double struck from stix2, just taking enough from stix2.sty to define the one font not change the whole setup.

\documentclass{article}
\DeclareFontEncoding{LS1}{}{}
\DeclareFontSubstitution{LS1}{stix2}{m}{n}
\DeclareMathAlphabet{\stixbb}{LS1}{stix2bb}   {m} {n}
\begin{document}
[$\stixbb{12345}+12345$]
\end{document}

I use \documentclass{amsart}. There will be no issues, right? – Ralph Clausen Oct 14 '20 at 11:20

font setup in amsart is essentially same as article+amsmath so should be fine @RalphClausen – David Carlisle Oct 14 '20 at 11:28
Thanks! @DavidCarlisle – Ralph Clausen Oct 14 '20 at 11:38

This works out of the box in unicode-math. The package also supports \Bbbfive and the Unicode character .
