Frequently asked questions

Why does the zero at the start of an Alt code matter?

Codes with a leading zero (Alt+0151) read from the Windows-1252 character set; codes without it (Alt+236) read from the old IBM PC set, code page 437. Alt+151 and Alt+0151 therefore type different characters.

My Alt codes type numbers instead of symbols. Why?

Alt codes only work on the numeric keypad with Num Lock on, not the number row. On laptops without a keypad, use the on-screen touch keyboard, the emoji panel (Windows key + period), or copy the character from a page like this one.

Do Alt codes work on a Mac?

No. Macs use Option-key combos for common symbols and the Character Viewer (Control+Command+Space) for everything else. Our per-symbol pages list the Option shortcut where one exists.

Want one specific symbol with its HTML entity and Mac shortcut too? Every popular character has its own page: em dash, en dash, degree symbol, infinity symbol, check mark, x mark, heart symbol, star symbol and more under symbols.
