Is there an alt code for a lower case theta that works in Framemaker? I've tried a couple I found on the internet, but they don't work - they appear as some other symbol.

Thanks, MK

There's a Unicode character for it (U+03B8).

Fabulous Code Chart claims that Alt+952 is a lowercase theta, but caveats it won't work in all programs. It certainly doesn't seem to work in FM, I think I got one of those weird ASCII characters used to indicate a wall in Nethack.

You can also apply a character tag to change the font to Symbol and use the lowercase q.

Thank you. This Unicode works.

Wouldn't that depend on the font you're using?

Arial. We are able to use alt 234 to make an ohm symbol. Just wondering if there’s one out there for a lower case theta.

Thanks
