In addition The Character Map utility is free on all Windows machines and can be used to copy and paste accented letters and other foreign language characters characters into any Windows application. The Character Map is similar to the Insert Symbol tool found in some Windows applications such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft FrontPage.

To open the Character Map utility Click on the Windows Start menu, on the lower left of your screen. Select Programs » Accessories » System Tools » Character Map. (OR click Start, Run, and type Charmap).

After choosing a font, double click the desired character(s), click on Copy, return to your document and paste.

NOTE: On some PCs, the Character Map may be in another location under Accessories or the Start menu.
