About symbols
You can insert symbols that don't appear on your keyboard into your form. For example, you can insert symbols such as ¼ and ©, as well as international characters, such as Ç and ë, into your form.
You insert symbols and characters into a form by using the Symbol dialog box. You can also use the Symbol dialog box to insert Unicode characters and to find the character code for Unicode characters.
The types of symbols and characters that you can insert depend on the available fonts that you have installed on your computer. For example, some fonts may include fractions (¼), international characters (Ç, ë), and international monetary symbols (£, ¥). The Symbol font that comes with your version of Microsoft Windows includes arrows, bullets, and scientific symbols. You might also have additional symbol fonts that include decorative symbols.
