Word: Shortcut Insert Trademark Symbol into Word Document
Contributed by MickeyMouse 
Tagged: Microsoft Office I have to document trademark junk material all the time. Here is the fastest ways to do so.
There are a lot of hard ways to insert symbols into word documents. However, most symbols have quick ways of doing it as well.
A recent recipe here explored using the ascii control set and reminded me of this.
To insert a trademark symbol into word quickly, you can do one of two things.
- 1. Type (TM) which word will convert automatically to the ™ symbol
2. To do it old school ascii style:
[list] a- Hold down ALT
b- On your keypad type 0153
c- Let go of ALT
I don’t know why you have to use your keypad… but you do. As soon as you let go of ALT, you should see the ™ symbol.
It works on web pages as well…
