How do I get special characters like x̱, g̱, and ḵ?
I work in an Alaska Native language, and develop most of my curriculum and documentation in InDesign CS6. I have a keyboard that uses the characters x̱, g̱, and ḵ frequently to work in the language. In the InDesign CC trial, only the ḵ is working and the x̱ and g̱ show up as x and g. This makes the product of much less use, and I see no reason to upgrade if it has fewer options. The newer releases of Microsoft Word and Mac Pages, while much less powerful and precise, have no problems with these characters.
Suggestions?
I cannot afford to spend time copying and pasting these characters. That seems to work, but that does not make sense to me.
Thanks.
The ones that are not working are a combining diacritic. This shift means working in multiple programs since a lot of the curriculum I have developed is in InDesign. The work stream is going to be disrupted by not being able to see it all in once place and moving between programs.
Here are the letters:
Ḵ — 1E34 Latin capital letter k with line below
ḵ — 1E35 Latin small letter k with line below
G̱ — 0047 Latin capital letter g + 0331 Combining macron below
g̱ — 0067 Latin small letter g + 0331 Combining macron below
X̱ — 0058 Latin capital letter x + 0331 Combining macron below
x̱ — 0078 Latin small letter x + 0331 Combining macron below

How can I get Chinese characters in the date and calendar?
The other night I was using a friend's Japanese iBook. I noticed that she the day displayed with a Chinese character in the menu bar and in the calendar widget (e.g., Her clock said 月4:27 instead of Monday 4:27), but her interface was in English (no Japanese menus).
How can I set the day to display with a Chinese character?

How to convert special characters like #, &, etc occuring in the input string
Hi,
I am using method 'Get' to submit a form . When ever there is any
special character like '#' in my input For example "033#Test", nothing
gets posted beyond 033.
Can any one please let me know how do I overcome this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Moin
Moinuddin:
It seems possible your browser may be confused by the fact that 033 is
the octal representation for an ESCape character (Hex 1B). Try dropping
the leading zero. In addition, it is usually better to represent special
characters like the hash mark "#" using HTML character entities instead
of literals, i.e. # = hash mark

How to show Special Characters like (∠) in an Embedded text field
I want to show some special characters like (∠). It is working fine if we don't embed the text field. But I want to use superscript and subscript font, so I have to embed that dynamic text field. When I embedd the texfield it does not show me the (∠) symbol. Instead it shows me a square symbol. Please let me know how can I solve this problem. My project is nearly finish except for this part.
Thanks in advance
SalimYes, I know we need to include the symbols. But I am unable to include it. Whenever I click on embed option and paste the symbol (∠) in the include these characters box, it appears as a square symbol. This is driving me nuts.
I even tried to embed All (54665 glyphs). But this is not working either.

How to add special characters like üöä to a rss feed?
Hello,
I've (again) a small problem. In my podcast I use the header
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rss version="2.0"
xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"
xmlns:wfw="http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/"
xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"

xmlns:itunes="http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd"
xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/"
>
and encoding UFT-8. Every time I add special characters like the German Ö Ä or Ü to my feed, the feed stops working. The validator says that characters like üöä are no UTF-8 characters which is correct of course, but a second podcast which I listen to, uses the same header like I do but it contains the same special characters and it works. Does anyone know what the difference is?
This is my podcast feed which does not work with üöä
http://quartett.planeteternia.org/rssfeed.xml
That's a podcast feed (not mine) which works with üöä
http://technikwuerze.de/feed/
Thank you very much
Kind regardshttp://quartett.planeteternia.org/newsfeed.xml - there is no file at this address. You have a feed at
http://quartett.planeteternia.org/rssfeed.xml
but there are no diacriticals in it - presumably you've removed them.
The other feed simply includes the diacriticals - it's not using html encoding to display them - so I don't know why you should be having trouble. You need to be writing the text in a plain text editor, not a word processor, and I don't know whether there is an issue with Windows here.
You could try using the codes - they must be the numbered not the named codes:
ü is ü
ö is ö
ä is ä -
How can I enter special characters in a text title?
Hello to all!
Have been trying to get in a special character [the tick mark] onto a text title on my current project. Had gone to the special character option under EDIT menu, and added the desired special character to the 'favourite' list, but after that I do not know how to move ahead. Would like help.
Thanks to all.
Dr. SomannaThank you for your reply.
However I am afraid that neither double click nor drag/drop is adding the character to the text.
Is there any other method to get special characters into FCPX? -
I would like to translate the User Interface of my application to French, Italian, Spanish, German and Portuguese.
When I put special characters in the import string file they showed up as ? (question mark)
The import strings file includes the following parameters for each string: font, text, size and style. (but no field for script)
In order to use a unicode font such as Arial I need to select a french script. But this option is not supported bu LabView (As far as I saw)
A) Is there a font which is directly German/ French etc and not regula font + script parameter?
B) Are there another required step
s for special characters support? (When I put speciual characters in the import string file the showed up as ? question mark)This was discussed last week in this group- read the previous messages.
Look for the thread "Foreign Languages in Labview"
And recite the mantra
ActiveX is good
ActiveX is holy
All Hail Bill
Those who claim otherwise are heretics and not to be trusted
Actually, in this case the non-ActiveX suggestions may be good.

How can I distinguish special characters or signs in Doc through VBA?
How can I distinguish special characters or signs in Doc through VBA?
I have a few large documents written in word 2003 format and now I work on them under word 2007.
Such large documents containing lots of special characters. I want to change them into Microsoft 3.0 equation form(It is required by the team). I find no way but using function AddOLEObject and Sendkeys through VBA. Common characters can be added
to equation by function Sendkeys, but the return value of Asc() or AscW() for "double arrow", "in" , " not greater than " such special characters or signs, to name but a few are the same ,i.e., 40 And I cannot distinguish them.
I found the link http://msdn.itags.org/word/44333/ may be of use to me, and the title is:
How to read symbols from a DOC documents! (Microsoft Word)
the original question is
Using function "InsertSymbol", I can insert a symbol into a document. But
how can I read a symbol from a document?
Using "Characters(i).range.text", I can read a char. But when meeting a
symbol, the value of "Characters(i).range.text" is always '('.How can I get the CharacterNumber of the symbol.
And the final answer is :
Hi chenfeng,
Word protects symbols from symbol fonts if you insert them from the "Insert
> Symbol" dialog.
This is done so they aren't changed when you change the font or style. But
it also results in Word reporting AscW( ) = 40 on all of them.
I've posted a macro to "unprotect" them (or to protect them again if you
want) ... just today again in

Problems with special characters like "u00F6" "u00E4" "u00FC"
Hi,
we currently face some major problems with special characters like "ö" "ä" "ü". First I thought it is a SP02 specific problem but it still doesn't work with SP03.
When I start an import the import manager shows correct converted value. "ö"s "ä"s "ü"s are displayed correctly. But after I've done the import I look into the Data manager and I see instead of these characters charcaters like "̈". (note: the character should show a little square box - but the forum cannot desplay it)
How can I solve this problem?
Regards
NicoHi Nico
Just try it out the following steps, hope it solves ur issue.
<b>To set one or more values back to their original values:</b>
1. In the Import Manager Source Values grid, select the values that you want to set back to their original values.
2. Right-click on one of the values and choose Set to Original Value from the context menu, or choose Values > Apply Value Conversion Filter > Set to Original Value from the main menu.
3. MDME sets each value back to its original value, which appears in black in the Source Values grid.
<b>NOTE : You can use the Set to Original Value filter only at the value-level and not at the field level.</b>
thanks

Always jumps back to special characters like ü,ö,ß
hello,
so i have been having problems with my macbook pro recently. it has a US keyboard but i write a lot in german so i have to use special characters like ä,ü,ö,ß which normally is not a problem, because i can just stay longer on the a,u,o,s keys and it works perfectly. however, recently when i was typing one of the special characters a lot of the time it jumped back to the previous one i had typed a couple of words back.
this is really really annoying and i do not know what i can do about it or what i am doing wrong.
it would be awesome if somebody knows a way how to fix this problem.
thank you for your help!Hi,
Unicode or Non-Unincode System ?
Displayed where ? SAPGUI ? Print Preview ? Spool-Display ?
And how is the XML file written ? OPEN DATASET ? BAPI ?
At all of these stages it might be either that it is only a display system, like the selected display CHARSET in SAPGUI, when it is a non-unicode system, or simply not coded correctly like OPEN DATASET without specifying the cdepage when necessary.
And it might even be, that even "displaying" the XML File is simply done with the incorrect codepage while the data inside the file is correct.
If you are on Windows, you might even face funny results when saving a simple textfile from notepad with ANSI/DOS and both Unicode variants and then go to CMD.EXE ans simply "type" the content.
All 4 results will be different, allthough notepad will display the same stuff.
So first of all, makes sure which codepage is relevant at all stages from DB-table to "display"
- DB-Charset
- SAP system type (unicode/non-unicode)
- SAP codepage (1100 / 410x )
- crosscheck the test from report RSCPINST
- Codepage on Windows running SAPGUI
- Selected codpage for Sapgui
Good hunting

How do you add special Characters???
Does anyone know how to add special characters like accents to words in pages '08???
There are several other threads that deal with this in detail.
On the Mac since almost day one, most of the accents are created by first typing option plus one of the vowels/consonants, followed by the vowel/consonants to which the accent is added. Some are direct alternatives, try them and see what they do.
eg
*Indirect accents*
option e plus e = é also á, é, í, ó, ú
option i plus e = ê also î, â, ô, û
option u plus e = ë, ï, ä, ü, ö
option n plus n = ñ
*Direct accents*
option a = å
option o plus e = ø
option c = ç
option s = ß (now obsoleted)
option w = ∑ (because it looks like a sideways w)
option f = ƒ
option t = †
option v = √ (square root character, which looks like a v)
etc
I have always marvelled at the common sense approach that Apple used compared with the way the Windows programmers did it.
