Inserting symbols

Inserting symbols


MS word allows us to add characters beyond the keyboard's 26 letters of alphabets, numbers, and punctuation marks.


Steps to insert symbols


  • In the Symbols group on the Insert tab, we can click the Symbol command button
    Inserting symbols

  • Now a list of some popular or recently used symbols appears. By selecting a symbol from the menu we can insert the special symbol directly into our document (where we currently have the insertion pointer)

  • Also, we can use More symbols... option if a special symbol is not present in the displayed menu.
