<h1>Insert symbols and characters</h1>
|
|
<p>To insert a special symbol which can not be typed on the keyboard, use the <img alt="Symbol table icon" src="../images/insert_symbol_icon.png" /> <b>Insert symbol</b> option and follow these simple steps:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>place the cursor where a special symbol should be inserted,</li>
|
|
<li>switch to the <b>Insert</b> tab of the top toolbar,</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
click the <img alt="Symbol table icon" src="../images/insert_symbol_icon.png" /> <b>Symbol</b>,
|
|
<p><img alt="Insert symbol sidebar " src="../images/insert_symbol_window.png" /></p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>The <b>Symbol</b> dialog box will appear, and you will be able to select the required symbol,</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>use the <b>Range</b> section to quickly find the necessary symbol. All symbols are divided into specific groups, for example, select 'Currency Symbols' if you want to insert a currency character.</p>
|
|
<p>If the required character is not in the set, select a different font. Many of them also have characters that differ from the standard set.</p>
|
|
<p>Or enter the Unicode hex value of the required symbol you want into the <b>Unicode hex value field</b>. This code can be found in the <b>Character map</b>.</p>
|
|
<p>You can also use the <b>Special characters</b> tab to choose a special character from the list.</p>

<p>The previously used symbols are also displayed in the <b>Recently used symbols</b> field,</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>click <b>Insert</b>. The selected character will be added to the document.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|

<h2>Insert ASCII symbols</h2>

|
<p>The ASCII table is also used to add characters.</p>
|
|
<p>To do this, hold down the ALT key and use the numeric keypad to enter the character code.</p>

|

|
|
