Thread: Keyboard Shortcuts - IP Protection

Just figured this out today for those who don't know and need these tidbits.


When writing your webcopy and you need to indicate a trademark or copyright on your intellectual property (such as your brand trade name or your product or service) there are a couple of ways to do each:

Your Company Name™ [to enter that little "TM", press & hold down the ALT key on your keyboard and type the numeric combination "0153", then let go of the ALT key]

Your Company Name Newsletter© [to enter the "C" in the circle, press & hold down the ALT key and type the numeric combination "0169", then let go of the ALT key]

Another way to do this, in Word for example, is to type () parentheses with either "TM" or "C" [without the quotes] inside them and space over.

*Keep in mind, ™ means an unregistered trademark. You need the "R" in a circle to indicate that it is registered.

I don't yet know the ASCII keyboard combos for either the registered trademark or the service mark, but the two above are all most entrepreneurs need to get started.

awesome! does anyone know how to make the sign for degrees?
