    Is it possible to add European letters with the accents?

    I know if software like Word all you do is insert a special character.

    Is that possible in SVP 11?

    If you mean like this, use the Character Map feature that’s built into Windows to copy and paste them.

    How do I access that? And can I have the special character in a particular font?

    Actually, I got it.

    I just Googled Windows special characters and found a site that shows how to access them with the Alt + .

    It worked! All I needed was the “à” character in the font I’m using in my project!

    Thanks!

    Glad you got it figured out.
    For future reference, if you’re on XP, go Start- Programs – Accessories – System Tools – Character Map.
    Besides accents and symbols such as ©, fonts like Wingdings and Webdings have a lot of things such as arrows and other assorted symbols.
