insert Greek symbols

Mon Dec 12 19:45:44 PST 2011

Hi, Ann.

An old message from you came up from my search and I have a question for you.

	1. Have you made PopChar work with FrameMaker version 10 at all (on w Windows system)?

For some reason, the evaluation copy that I downloaded will not work with FM 10 (have not tried earlier versions of FM, since I don't use them anymore). No problems with Word, Excel, Outlook, etc., but in FN 10, nothing gets inserted into the open document. The minimize/maximize/close window icons in the upper right corner "flash" (making it seem like the mouse/keyboard focus does indeed get back to FM), but nothing actually gets inserted into the document!

I have contacted Ergonis Software, and they are looking into it, but I thought it would be good to ask here as well! Just in case it is my system rather than some FM 10 issue. My suspicion was that the new look-and-feel GUI in FM 10 may be trapping keystrokes in ways that PopChar cannot work with ...

Thanks for any thoughts you all may have!

Z (another one :))

I use a product called "PopChar" that works on the PC and Mac. It displays all the characters in a given font. You just click on the character you want and it is pasted into your application.

John,

Special characters are accessible by typing the ALT key and the ANSI code, then changing the resulting text to the Symbol font. I have a printed list of the characters, but I am not sure where I got it. Mu happens to be ALT + 077.

Hi, 

How do I insert math symbols inline? Do I have to create an equation string or can I just insert a symbol, like the Greek mu?

Thanks.
