Add Special Characters In Word 2007 Using The Keyboard

There are different ways that you can insert special characters into your Word document. One method is to the Symbol option in the Symbols group on the Insert tab of the Ribbon. Another method is to use the appropriate keyboard shortcuts. Using the keyboard is particularly useful for those special characters that you use regularly.

If you prefer the second method, your first step is to identify the keystrokes required to insert a specific character. This can be accomplished by opening the Symbols dialog box. When you select a specific symbol, the shortcut key used to insert the character is displayed at the bottom of the dialog box. Write down the keystroke for future reference. The next time you want to insert the character, place the cursor where you want the symbol placed, and use the keystroke you previously noted. The special character will be inserted into your document.
