How do I create a button to insert a copyright symbol? In Word, I just select it from the character map. I copied © from Word and typed it in the button Name field but what do I need to type in the "Text to be typed"? Nothing I tried works :roll:

You can use {AltNum 0169} to type the © symbol in Microsoft Word.

Is it not possible to create a button to type a copyright symbol in applications other than Word? If it is, what should be in "Text to be typed" field for a button?

{AltNum 0169} should work for all programs that can accept a ©.

As an alternative you can also use {Paste ©}
