<p class="MsoNormal">First, if you haven't already, you need to turn on the unicode keypad. It's turned off in Windows by default. Use regedit to find the key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Input Method". Right-click on it, choose New and then String to create
a new string called "EnableHexNumpad" with a value of "1". (Don't type the quotes.) REBOOT. Don't forget to reboot!<br>
<br>
Now, you will be able to type unicode characters by holding down the left-alt key and simultaneously pressing the plus sign on the keypad, and then (while still holding down the left-alt key) enter the unicode character. Then release the left-alt key. (Note
that the right-alt key does not work for this.)<br>
<br>
So, for your example you would hold down your Left-Alt key, and then (simultaneously) on the numeric pad:<br>
press + <br>
press 2<br>
press 0<br>
press 0<br>
press 8<br>
and then release the Alt key. Some Unicode characters have the hex letters a to f in them. Simply enter them from the main keyboard (while still holding down the Left-Alt key).<br>
<br>
PLEASE NOTE that the punctuation space that you want to enter will ONLY appear if the font you are using contains it as a defined character. (Most fonts do not.)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Now a new question: I thought there was a way to insert a space that’s the width of punctuation, such as a period or comma (similar to Esc spacebar m for em space, Esc spacebar
t for thin space, etc.). I found the Unicode for it is x2008. I’ve tried (and had other people) try this, holding down Alt and typing 2008 on the numeric keypad. We get a character that looks like a long equal sign with a vertical line through it.<o:p></o:p></p>
