If you do not see an option that you like, choose a different value from the Font drop-down list—Webdings, for example—to peruse additional sets of symbols. Microsoft Word supports special characters such as bullets, copyright and trademark symbols, various styles of arrows, and related glyphs. Select OK when you&#39;ve made your choice.
