Hi,
I'm a Word user, and I'm familiar with the normal way to access symbols and
international characters unless you're a screen reader user and find that
function impossible to navigate. Which I do in the past couple of releases
of Word. I also know about the Jaws Insert 4 symbol list, and I know that
some people have an entire set of keyboard strokes to produce ansi
characters either memorized or on a list somewhere.
But I don't know what you mean, below. What kind of search are you
referring to? Where do you find the search engine into which you type
something about international characters? Please explain more.
thanks,
Daniel
