HOW TO: Type Odd Characters
HOW TO TYPE ODD CHARACTERS & SYMBOLS
Oh the eternal frustration of never being able to type the right symbol in another language, or indeed all the odd symbols, such as copyright, pounds, euros, or just little love hearts!
Here’s how to do it.
The Windows system contains a ‘Character Map’, which allows you to add any type of foreign language character or special symbol, such as;
+ to any text you may be writing.
It contains literally hundreds of characters.
To access this Character map simply follow this road;
Click START >> hover over ALL PROGRAMS >> click ACCESSORIES >> click SYSTEM TOOLS >> click CHARACTER MAP.
Select the font you are presently using. Click on the character you wish to insert. It will appear in the ‘Characters to copy’ box. Highlight it and copy/paste into your text.
For those who have yet to master the ‘COPY/PASTE’ function, it is done thus;
Place the cursor on the text you want to copy and highlight it by either double clicking and sliding your mouse across it or by pressing [Ctrl] [A] (meaning copy All). Now press [Ctrl] [C] while the text remains highlighted to copy it. Move your cursor to where you want to place the text you have just copied, press [Ctrl] [V] to ‘Paste‘ it in place.

The other day, while I was at work, my cousin
stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation.
My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I had
to share it with someone!
An impressive share! I’ve just forwarded this onto a coworker who has been conducting a little homework on this. And he actually bought me lunch due to the fact that I found it for him… lol. So allow me to reword this…. Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanx for spending the time to talk about this subject here on your website.
I’m really enjoying the design and layout of your blog. It’s a very easy on the
eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and
visit more often. Did you hire out a developer to create
your theme? Superb work!
It is actually a great and useful piece of info.
I’m glad that you shared this helpful information with us. Please stay us informed like this. Thank you for sharing.
My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .
net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on several websites for about
a year and am nervous about switching to another platform. I have heard excellent things about blogengine.
net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it?
Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
My brother recommended I would possibly like this
blog. He used to be entirely right. This submit actually made my day.
You cann’t consider simply how much time I had spent for this information! Thanks!
Hi there! Would you mind if I share your blog with my zynga group?
There’s a lot of folks that I think would really appreciate
your content. Please let me know. Thank you
Way cool! Some very valid points! I appreciate you writing this article and also the rest of the website is really good.
This design is wicked! You obviously know how to
keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own
blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job. I really enjoyed what you had to
say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
Very good post. I am dealing with a few of these issues as well.

This post will assist the internet viewers for creating new
webpage or even a weblog from start to end.
We hope so! Thanks for dropping by!
No, we have built the site ourselves. Cheers!
It’s such a simple thing but so hard to figure out if you just don’t know how!
Hope it was a good meal – and SO glad we stopped you going hungry today haha!
Oh dear! A problem shared is a problem halved!? In your case – well – maybe not! We love off topic; nothing is sacred in Tezi magazine!
