Microsoft Word has lots of great keyboard shortcuts, and shortcuts for accented characters are no exception. Insert Accented Letters with Keyboard Shortcuts Pretty simple, right? But, what if you need to insert some symbols pretty often and don’t want to open up and search that Symbol window every time? Well, we have a couple of tricks to show you. Just in the image below, you can see the symbols for copyright (©) and registered trademark (®). Note while you’re here that there are all kinds of other useful symbols in this window. That’s where you’ll likely find the accented letter you’re after.Ĭlick the character you’re looking for, and then click the “Insert” button to insert it into your document. For now, though, go ahead and choose “Latin-1 Supplement” from the “Subset” dropdown. In fact, if you scroll through the available characters, you can watch the Subset value change. The “Subset” dropdown lets you jump to particular subsets of characters. Use the “Font” dropdown menu to choose the font you’re using (or, you can just select the “Normal Text” entry). Word does help by letting you filter by font and subset, though. The Symbol window that opens displays a huge number of characters to choose from-3,633 to be exact. If not, click the “More Symbols” option, instead. If the symbol you’re after is there, just click it.
In older versions, the dropdown menu shows your most-recently-used symbols. Newer versions of Word will automatically open the Symbol window.
