Using Character Map Accessory in PageMaker



Using Character Map Accessory:

Windows comes with an accessory called Character Map that lets you insert special characters. Most of these characters will be from symbol fonts, such as Singwinds, Symbol and Zapf Dingbats. Under Windows, click the Start button > Programme > Accessories > System Tools > Character Map. From the Font list, select the desired font. Click the symbol you want. Choose the Select button, and then click the Copy command to place the character on the Clipboard. Close or minimize Character Map and return to PageMaker. Paste the symbol in the desired location.
