Re: Problems with special characters
Hi Phil... Our ListShortcuts plugin (free) lists all of the shortcuts available in your installation of FrameMaker. http://www.leximation.com/tools/info/listshortcuts.php It does this by looping through all of the "commands" defined in Frame and builds a list of those that have shortcuts. This includes all of the special characters (as far as I know it lists them all). These are not ordered in any way other than how they are defined internally in Frame, so it may take some time to locate what you're looking for. For example, the following are listed as commands (some have multiple shortcuts defined, and some appear to have multiple commands that result in the same character) ..

Greater or equal is alt-0179 (I believe the 0 is required). You probably need to wrap this in symbol font.

Mathieu, Alt+242 was the code for the "greater or equal than" symbol in the US MS-DOS codepage 437. This character is not available in the Windows Western European codepage (1252) or the matching MS-DOS codepage 850. The character is, however, available in the Symbol font.
