How do you type a greater than or equal to symbol?

Answer 1

You can find it in the Character Map (I found this under the font: Arial Unicode MS--which seemed to have most every character available).

To get to Character Map (through Windows operating system), click on "Start" then click on "All Programs" then click on "Accessories" then click on "System Tool" and then click on "Character Map." Change the listed font to: Arial Unicode MS and then scroll down, looking carefully for the symbols that you are looking for.

What you do next is to click on the character (or hit "Select"), you want, and it should show up in the "Characters to Copy" box. Then click on the button "Copy" then go to where you want to show the character and right-click your mouse button and select "Paste"

Now, it might not be the size you want, but you can highlight it, and change the font or size of the character, once you have it in your document.

Yet another way to place a character in your document, would be to:

[from Help screen for Character Map]

you would find the Unicode in the description box at the bottom of the Character Map screen. For example for 'less than or equal to" symbol it states:

"U+2266 Less-Than Over Equal To"

Therefore, you would have Numbers Lock "ON" and while holding down your Alt Key (near the spacebar on your keyboard), enter 2 then 2 and 6 and 6. The symbol should show up.
