International & Scientific Character Set
(Compiled by Garbini)
There are a number of characters and symbols which do not appear on U.S. computer keyboards, but which are sometimes necessary for e-mailed documents. These characters are attainable with U.S. keyboards by holding down the ALT key while typing in a 3- or 4-number sequence on the numeric keys at the right of the keyboard. Below is a table of those characters with their corresponding ALT key sequences. You may want to print this out for ready reference (using a non-proportional font so that the columns line up). These characters apply to e-mailer programs, but NOT necessarily to other programs which print hard copy.
