How do I add special characters (ie. up arrow) using my keyboard onto my acrobat pdf document????

Please help me add special characters and symbols onto my adobe acrobat.

Open the Character Map (charmap) application and copy them from there.

Hi sinnombre,

Please let me know the version of operating system installed on your computer.

In case if it is a windows operation system you can use the direct key to insert the symbol :-

Upwards Arrow : Alt + 24

Downward Arrow : Alt + 25

Rightward Arrow : Alt + 26

Leftward Arrow : Alt + 27

In case if you still have any query please let us know. We will be happy to help you.

Regards,

Aadesh

Hi sinnombre,

Sure, I can help you with that.

You can find the hotkeys for Windows at : Keyboard shortcuts - Windows Help

For special symbols you can refer to this webpage : Alt Codes List of Alt Key Codes Symbols

Also you can find Special symbols in the Character Map of your Windows computer.
