When putting in the title or credits in a video production with AP CS5 is there a way to put in a copyright symbol? I sure can't fine one, and I've looked and looked.

These are music videos I am making and the artist wants to make sure the viewer knows the music and lyrics are copyrighted.

I'm sure there is a simple way to do this, I just haven't discovered it.

Thanks.

Try Start > Accessories > System Tools > Character Map, and click on it.

In the window which opens you will find the copyright symbol in the font of your choice - simply copy and paste into the Premiere titler.

I use this feature so much that I have pinned the Character Map icon to my taskbar.

To enter the copyright symbol:

On a Windows PC, press and hold the Alt key on your keyboard and enter 0169 on the numeric keypad.
On a Mac, press Option+G.

I never knew about Character Map. Thank you for this.

whatever happened to Option + G on the Mac? In PS, Alt + G works just fine to get a copyright symbol. This is another one of those Adobe inconsistencies that drives me nuts. It sure would be nice to have similar functions across all Adobe products to have the same shortcuts - at least for the shortcuts that we can't custom map a different way.

What am I missing? Option (Alt) G works fine with my copy of ps CS5.1.

ALT + 0169 = ©

Alt+ 0169 does NOT work.

I think some fonts don't have ©. So you might have to switch to Ariel or something.

ALSO, I just noticed that if I used the top row of numbers, ALT+0169 didn't work. I had to use the number pad.

For many laptops you might have to open the Character Map as mentioned previously.

Another workaround might be to copy & paste from another document.

Thanks everybody, but Alan's answer works the best for me.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday.

Thanks again for all the great help and the quick responses.

Over and out.

Searching the Help file would have been a good start: Titler (keyboard shortcuts)

Result	Windows	Mac OS
Insert copyright symbol	Ctrl+Alt+Shift+C	Command+Option+Shift+C

(Character map and the Unicode shortcuts work, too.)

What about just typing 0169 on the numeric keypad while holding down the ALT key.

Alan,

I use your method for so very many symbols. I have a shortcut on my Desktop.

Besides the ©, ®, £, ° and ± symbols, I use Wingdings 1 thru 3 and Webdings quite often. They work great for making "arrows" to follow a action.
