Degree Sign for Signatures

[threejack]

those of you familiar with html may already know this but I have seen some signatures with asterisks in place of degrees. if you would like to put the real deal degree sign after your wedge specs all you have to do is:

1: click on source when editing your signature

2: find locate where you want to insert a degree sign

3: type "°" without the quotation marks.

when you unclick source you should see this bad boy: °

Thanks Mike.

The normal WYSIWYG editor is just that, and will transcribe things to UTF-8, so on a Mac anyway you can type option-k to get the degree symbol: ˚.

But for whatever reason that version ends up being smaller (so small you can't really tell what it is), so "°" is the way to go.

There's also option-shift-8 (mnemonic because people often use the * as a stand-in).  That gives the full-size ° sign.

Or you could just hold alt and press 167 on the number pad.
