Question
Hi -- I am a novice at using Adobe Illustrator  I am working with a template provided by a graphics firm and I am to add the text for an ad.  I am using a PC. I need to be able to insert the (R) registered trademark symbol at 2 different places in the text, but can't figure out how to do this!  When I do this in Word, for example, it happens automatically.  Any ideas or thoughts?  I so appreciate it -- I have an ad due on the first of Oct!

Thanks.

Answer
Hi Debbie.

Simply use the alt+key combinations that work in all applications.

Place your cursor where you need to insert the symbol.

Hold down ALT and press the 0174 keys and then let go of the alt.

ALT+0169 = the Copyright symbol and there are many others.

Hope this helps!
