International Formatting

Some foreign languages use diacritical marks to show phonetic marks.  So, what are diacritical marks?  Diacritical marks are individual marks that add to the meaning of what is written.  The Symbol dialog box has many of the characters needed to type words with special accents.  Click INSERT-SYMBOLS-MORE SYMBOLS-and look under NORMAL TEXT-then in the subset box, click LATIN-1 SUPPLEMENT.  There are also several short-cuts to the most commonly used symbols.  They are listed below:

é	e acute	Querétaro	ATL+130
í	i acute	García	ALT+161
ń	n tilde	Seńor	ALT+164
