Character set

The netBook contains several fonts, but all have the same basic character set. This is the IBM Code Page 1252 character set. In addition to the characters that you can enter directly from the keyboard, there are many other special characters which you can use. You can display and insert them using the Insert special character command in the Word program.

To insert special characters in Word:

1.Open the Word file.

2.Select the Special character command from the Insert menu.

3.Select the required character and press OK.

Note: You can also use the Shift+Ctrl+C shortcut keypress to display the Special character dialog when typing text in most other programs.

Appendices 203

To insert special characters when you can’t display the Special character dialog:

1.Move to Word, select the Special character command from the Insert menu.

2.Move the highlight to the character you want to insert to display its shortcut key at the bottom of the dialog, e.g. the special character has the shortcut Ctrl+153.

3.Move back to the program in which you want to insert the character and press its shortcut key, e.g. to insert hold down Ctrl and press 1, then 5 and then 3.
