Insert Symbol
For both Mac and Windows, Canvas has an Insert Symbol command.
While in text edit mode, place the text I-beam at the location
that you wish to insert the symbol.
Choose Text > Insert.
Select a symbol from the submenu list and release the
mouse.
The selected symbol will automatically be inserted.
Note: For special characters that are not present on the submenu, you
must use the Character Map (Windows) or Keycaps (Mac).
Typographic quotes
You can set a preference so Canvas inserts typographic (curly)
quotation marks in text you type. For more information, see Use
Smart Quotes, page 15.228.
To control line breaks
Soft returns are forced line breaks which do not create new para-
graphs.
