How can I use the ® (R in a circle) registered trademark symbol in my projects?

If you are using a Windows computer with a full-sized keyboard, which includes a number pad, 'type' the ® (R in a circle) registered trademark symbol by:

1. Clicking inside the field where you want to enter the symbol, to place your cursor.
   
   
2. Holding down the "Alt" key on your keyboard.  While holding down the "Alt" key, type the following digits on the number pad on the right side of your keyboard: 0174
   
   
3. Release the "Alt" key.  

You should see the ® symbol appear in the field where you had placed your cursor.

Note: If the steps above do not work on a Windows computer with a full-sized keyboard, make sure your "NumLock" is engaged.

If your keyboard does not have a number pad (e.g. you are on a small laptop or netbook), the steps described above do not work with the number keys above the letter keys. 

If you do not have a full-sized keyboard, or if you are not using a Windows computer, you can copy/paste the symbol from this page to your project:
