1. Make certain that the Num Lock key has been pressed to activate
the numeric key section of the keyboard.
2. Depress the Alt key.
3. While the Alt
key is depressed ,
type the proper sequence of numbers (on the numeric keypad) of
the ALT code from the table above.
4. Release the Alt key, and the character will appear.
†Some browsers do not recognize all of the ALT Characters. Since each
of the characters in the table above is virtually unique, seeing multiple
cells of the same character most likely indicates that your browser does
not recognize the codes of some of the characters. Therefore, it does
not know what those characters should look like, and
it inserts its own character each time. If this is the case for you, then
view a graphic image of how the table should look.
Some word processing programs and browsers will not recognize all Alt
characters.

*There are some gaps in the numerical sequence of ALT Character codes
because either those items do not exist, or else they are duplicates of
characters listed elsewhere. Many Special ALT Characters, Special
HTML Characters, and Special <Font Face="Symbol"> Characters are the same.
Some word processing programs and browsers will not recognize all Alt characters.
