Enter unicode in Windows Word.
« on: March 16, 2017, 05:09:30 PM »
Some codes you can enter by using the ALT key and typing three digists on the number  keypad.
However, Unicode goes beyond.
Here is a good link I found:
Three ways to enter Unicode characters in Windows

Alt – x

In Microsoft Word you can insert Unicode characters by typing the hex value of the character then typing Alt-x. You can also see the Unicode value of a character by placing the cursor immediately after the character and pressing Alt-x. This also works in applications that use the Windows rich edit control such as WordPad and Outlook.

Still find it interesting that Notepad by default doesnt save in unicode, I have to specify to tell it to save copy/pasted content as unicode or it complains. Never tried it with MS Word yet to see if it doesnt care or not. The last version of MS Word I had was 2003, and since then I moved on to Open Office and then Libre Office because it is FREE and does everything i need.

I think WordPad will let you do Unicode.
