Now we will consider the question of how to put a paragraph sign, creating a document on a personal computer. I must say that with the undeniable popularity of this symbol, not all PC users know where to find it.
Introduction
To begin with, we note that the sign of the paragraph has the form of two stylized letters s. This symbol was provided for by the makers of typewriters, but unfortunately, on modern computer keyboards it is not available. This fact raises the question of how to put the sign of the paragraph. In turn, the assigned task has several solutions at once, of which we will talk later.
Basic method
The first version of how to put a paragraph mark on a keyboard is relevant for many applications, including office products from Microsoft, such as Excel and Word, as well as the standard Windows Notepad. First, make sure that the digital block that puts the right side of the keyboard on itself is set to active. If this feature is disabled, click Num Lock (special key). After that, press the Alt key and, holding it, enter the value 0167. Thus, after you release the Alt key, the paragraph sign will appear in the document.
Using special characters
For programs that include inserting special characters, you can use the specified tools. If you are working with a Word document, you need to place the cursor in the place where you want to put the paragraph sign. Next, open the "Insert" tab, and then click on the "Symbol" function from the "Symbols" section of the toolbar . As a rule, it is located on the right side of the panel. If you can not find the desired character in the menu that appears, click the "Other Symbols" item with the left mouse button. You will see the following dialog box. In the "Symbols" tab, find the paragraph icon, then select it with the left mouse button, and finally click the "Paste" item. Close the window. There is one more alternative solution. After calling the "Symbol" dialog box, go to the "Special signs" tab. The above list also contains the sign of the paragraph. To start, select it, and then click the "Insert" button. With the same tab, you can easily configure the keyboard shortcuts so that you do not have to open the "Symbols" all the time. Select the paragraph sign with the left mouse button, and then click on the "Key combination" item.
