# Special Characters

Special characters are symbols that aren't available on a standard keyboard, such as currency symbols (₹, €, $), mathematical symbols (×, ÷, ±), punctuation marks (©, ®, ™), and accented characters (á, é, ñ).

## Insert a special character

Add special characters to your document:

1. Place your cursor where you want the character to appear.
2. On the toolbar, click **Insert Special Character**.
3. An elaborate list of special characters will open.
4. Click on the character you want to include.

The selected character will appear in your document at the cursor position.

## Manage special characters

Once inserted, special characters can be managed like regular text:

### Delete a special character

1. Position your cursor at the special character.
2. Press **Backspace** or **Delete** on your keyboard.

### Copy, cut, or paste special characters

1. Select the special character in your document.
2. **Right-click** on the selected character.
3. Choose **Copy**, **Cut**, or **Paste** from the menu.

> **Info**
