There is a little utility called PopChar by Ergonis software ($15,
I think) that comes in PC and Mac versions that I find handy for
this purpose. It puts a little tab in the menu bar that accesses
the font chart for any installed font. Every once in a while, I
need to create something I've forgotten in Finale, or I need an
umlaut or French accent. This makes those things easy.
It looks like a great little utility, but the price for the windows
version is $29.99.
I use CharacterMapPro for that purpose, which is free but it isn't
nearly as versatile or as complete in what it offers as is the
Ergonis product which Chuck mentions. When I get a spare $30, I'll
likely get PopChar, as it offers a whole lot more.
I fall for ads for these things more often than I should, and my
savings account shows the effects of that. However, this one seems
worth the expense to me, even at $30. I'm sure the information is
accessible in other ways. I just appreciate the ease with which this
puts so much information at your fingertips.
