comment Real numbers symbol in XeTeX
Well, perhaps is wrong a little bit too hard, but "in a mathematial view wrong" was ment to say, that there are usually special signs for the sets of real numbers, all numbers, numbers like 1, 2, 3 (German ganze Zahlen, don't know in English), irrational numbers: I,N,Q,R,Z. They should only used for this purpose. The typographical view is with which font can I set the mathematical sign needed here? Which font does fit best what is needed? Now it is a matter of taste ... Or a matter of definition, for example in a section "typhographical remarks". Too excact? Remember - I'm a German :-)

comment Real numbers symbol in XeTeX
My English is not so good, but in the exact correct way you have only one doubled rule, usual the longest one, if there are two longest one only the first. So the letter R should be IR ... You can try \usepackage{txfonts} and then ` $\varmathbb{ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ}$`. In my opinion they fit better the usual writing by hand. (Or you use a mathematical trick: I define that IIR is set of real numbers or something else ...) BTW: which symbol has D.E. Knuth used?

comment Why is my TeXnicCenter not compiling and producing any output in PDF?
Have you installed first MiKTeX and afterwards TeXnicCenter? I guess not, because TeXnicCenter is able to find an installed MiKTeX and to config itself ...
