Entering Special (ISO Latin 1) Characters

Cosmo Create supports all special characters in the ISO Latin 1 character set. This includes characters such as the copyright and registered trademark symbols.

For a full list of supported characters, see the composetable(5) man page. Some commonly-used special characters include ®, ½, ¼, and £.

To enter special characters, follow these steps:

  1. Place the cursor where you want the special character to appear.

  2. Choose Tools > Special Characters... or click the Insert special character button in the Entry palette

    The Special Characters window appears.

  3. Click the button of the special character you want.

See the Special Characters Dialog reference card for further information on the dialog.

Note: Certain international locales (for example, Japan) do not support the special characters in the ISO Latin 1 character set. When Cosmo Create is run in one of these locales, you do not have access to the special characters dialog.
