在一个充满了我们在网络上寻找的不同类型字体的世界中，我们总是最终也在寻找不同类型的特殊字符(Special characters)和符号(Symbols)。我们可能已经学会了如何调整我们的系统，但我们大多数人仍然不知道如何输入某些符号，例如货币，而不管我们键盘上已经存在的那些符号。在本文中，我们将了解如何在Windows 11/10中轻松输入特殊字符和字母。
在我们的生活中，有时我们需要为项目准备一些文书工作或准备任何演示文稿，而且我们的日程安排非常紧凑，那时寻找这些特殊字符和符号对我们来说是一个很大的损失。我们都知道这些类型的字符和符号是我们不经常使用的，但有时如前所述，像这样的教程会很有帮助。
(Type Special Characters)在Windows 11/10键入特殊字符和字母(Letters)
我们应该很高兴我们的操作系统在涉及各种生活和节省时间的调整时涵盖了我们。但是，今天我们将学习的不是调整，而是我们所有人都忽略的基本功能。Windows 10 为我们自己的利益提供了各种隐藏和可见的选项。
要输入所需的特殊字符和字母，我们在下面提到了四种方法，您可以根据自己的方便选择其中一种。
- 使用 Windows 表情符号面板
- 使用Charmap – 字符映射应用程序(Charmap – Character Map Application)
- 使用触控键盘
- Microsoft Word 的特殊字符
- 键入替代代码。
1]使用Windows表情符号面板
所有这些部分都细分为不同的类型。因此，就符号(Symbols)部分而言，它分为通用标点符号、货币符号、拉丁符号、几何符号、数学符号、补充符号(General Punctuations, Currency Symbols, Latin Symbols, Geometric Symbols, Math Symbols, Supplemental Symbols,)和语言符号。(Language Symbols.)为了能够使用这些符号，请将光标放在您想要符号的位置，打开面板，然后选择符号。
2]使用字符映射应用程序
我们都知道Character Map已经陪伴我们很长时间了。我们经常最终使用相同的方法在文档中搜索和输入符号。要能够使用Character Map，请按照下列步骤操作：
- 按Win + R键，键入charmap，然后按Enter。或者您可以在开始菜单中搜索字符映射(character map)并打开它。
- 打开Character Map应用程序后，搜索并选择您当前在文档中使用的字体。
- 当您选择字体时，符号会像字体的设计一样出现（仅当字体支持不同的字符和符号时）。

3]使用触摸键盘
即使您没有触摸屏，使用 Windows 10 的触摸键盘也可以通过多种方式提供(Windows 10)帮助。键盘能够帮助您输入重音字母，就像Windows 表情符号(Windows Emoji)面板一样，这款触摸键盘也支持表情符号和符号。
- 右键单击(Right-click)任务栏并选择显示(Show)触摸键盘按钮。
- 现在在任务栏右侧寻找触摸键盘按钮并单击它。
- 要键入任何重音形式的字母，单击并按住鼠标左键，它将向您显示重音字母的可用建议。

4] Microsoft Word的特殊字符
由于我们大多数人更喜欢在Microsoft Word上工作，因此它带有自己的内置符号菜单。
- 打开微软 Word。
- 在插入(Insert)菜单功能区中，单击符号(Symbols)并选择更多符号。(More symbols.)
- 就像字符映射一样，选择您在文档中使用的字体。
- 从子集(Subset)菜单中选择符号类型。

5]键入替代代码
Alt代码是Alt键和数字键的组合。这些数字键的范围从1到255，然后从0128到0255。如果您还记得最有用的快捷键，则 alt 代码是最方便的快捷键之一。但是您需要记住的是，您需要一个带有数字键部分的键盘，并且打开了 num lock。
此方法不适用于不包括单独数字键盘的各种笔记本电脑，即功能键下方的数字键在此方法中没有用。

Alt codes are the combination of the Alt key and the numeric keys. These numeric keys range from 1 to 255 and then from 0128 to 0255. The alt codes are one of the handiest shortcuts if you remember even the most useful ones too. But what you need to keep in mind is that you need a keyboard with a numeric keys section with num lock turned on.
This method doesn’t work on various laptops which doesn’t include a separate numeric keypad i.e, the numeric keys below the function keys are of no use in this method.
