In Text Edit, if you reopen a UTF-8 file it may be magically transformed to MacRoman (you'll see things like Á& instead of your intended character). Go to the Format menu and select "Make Plain Text." Then, when you save the file you have to make sure the encoding menu under the file name is changed from "MacRoman" to "UTF-8". Once you insert the symbols, you have to make sure your encoding is set to UTF-8 during the save process. Highlight and click Insert to place it in Text Edit. Click the Math option and hunt for the symbol. In Text Edit for the Mac, you go to Edit » Special Characters to bring up the Character Palette. In Notepad, when you save the file, you have to make sure the encoding menu under the file name is changed from "ANSI" to "UTF-8". Then you have to select, copy and paste each symbol into Notepad. You have to switch the font to Arial Unicode MS (because it has the all the math symbols), then scroll down to window untul you see the math section.
SIGMA SYMBOL IN WORD 2007 WINDOWS
You have to open both Notepad (Start » Accessories) and Character Map (Start » Accessories » System Tools)įor the Windows Character Map, it's a semi-clunky process. Unfortunately, the process is still a little clunky in both platforms, but it's better than in 2005. The good news is that if you can create a UTF-8 text file and insert the symbols, it will import into Flash (at least in Flash 8.) For math, your best bet is usually to use the Windows Character Map utility and insert the symbols into a Notepad text file or use the Macintosh Character Palette with a Text Edit or BBEdit text file. The instructor wants to include the union (∪) and intersection symbol (∩) in his problems, so what to do?
I worked on a math quiz in Math for set theory where questions are pulled into a text file within Flash.
