I know what you mean, Wendy! Opt-8 is so much easier to remember!

Here is another example of an ALT+xxx combination;

if you want the ? symbol, type ALT + 0169 (make sure that Num Lock is on)

Welcome back G-Man!!!!!! Good to see you back! Rumour has it that you were missed over these past couple of weeks...

Cool... 0149 for bullets... 0169 for "copyright"... [confused] duh... there really ought to be a better way? It still "boggles my mind" as to why we can't copy & paste from the Windows character map????? [confused]

Thanks for the welcome back Wendy and nice to see you back too

Wendy... you CAN C&P from the character map. Of course you can... but it's still quicler to memorize your fav quick-keys i think. But i use them in html all the time so i already know most of them.
So i guess that's easier for me to say than others to do. ;\

[confused] duh, Mark, I do know that... it's the way that I always do it... [confused] I mean't to say that I still don't understand why you can't C+P straight from 'word' to PS and have all the fancy characters/bullets go along for the ride... [shhh] [size=9px]senility must be setting in![/size]

There are tools that can convert a Word page to an image.
You will not have text that's editable, but I've met some people in the past who had some good use for it.

I would definitely be interested, Gauss, in knowing about these tools. I do all of my 'copy writing' in Word and don't mind (in the least) the fact that once I c+p into PS that I would lose my editing ability. I simply would *love* to be able to c+p into PS and not lose my Word formatting!

Ok, I guess I have to look into that
