Hi. How do you insert the accented "a" and the accented "i" in Photoshop CS4? I’ve searched on the web and found reference to special character codes. Where do you find a list of these Alt-code combinations listed? Thanks.

Run Character map (charmap.exe). You can copy and paste into PS or use the keystrokes. Geoff.

OK Alex, Character map has been in windows for many years but most people don’t know it’s there. Geoff.

If you need accented characters on a regular basis you might want to set your keyboard to US International. This makes accents ‘dead keys’.
If such dead key is followed by a vowel you get á, ë, ç, Ú etc… very easily.
