In MS Word, the Symbol command is used to insert

  • A.characters not available on the keyboard, such as © or °
  • B.mathematical equations only
  • C.images from a file
  • D.hyperlinks to websites

Answer: C

Correct answer: characters not available on the keyboard, such as © or °

The Symbol command on the Insert tab provides characters absent from the keyboard: currency signs, accented letters, mathematical operators, arrows, Greek letters and dingbats. The dialogue shows the character’s Unicode value, and any character can be typed directly by entering that code and pressing Alt + X - typing 00A9 followed by Alt + X produces ©. The same dialogue allows a shortcut key to be assigned to a symbol used often. Some symbols are inserted automatically by AutoCorrect: typing (c) gives ©, (r) gives ® and (tm) gives ™. For mathematics the Equation tool, Alt + =, is the better choice, since it lays out fractions, integrals and matrices properly rather than assembling them from individual characters. The symbol available depends on the font: Wingdings and Symbol contain characters that ordinary text fonts do not, so a document using them may not display correctly elsewhere.
