Thumbs up Answer: Can I add a custom symbol to the symbol list in word?

Yes, you can definitely add a custom symbol to the symbol list in Word. Here's how you can do it:
  1. First, save the figure you created in Corel draw as an image file (such as .jpg, .png, or .bmp).
  2. Open a new Word document and go to the Insert tab.
  3. Click on the Symbol button and select More Symbols at the bottom of the drop-down menu.
  4. In the Symbol dialog box, select the Symbols tab and click on the Font drop-down menu.
  5. Scroll down and select Wingdings or Webdings font. These fonts have a lot of empty spaces that you can use to add your custom symbol.
  6. Click on the empty space where you want to add your custom symbol and then click on the Insert button.
  7. Now, go to the Insert tab again and click on the Pictures button.
  8. Select the image file of your custom symbol and click on the Insert button.
  9. Resize the image to fit the empty space you selected earlier.
  10. Finally, save your document and your custom symbol will now be available in the symbol list in Word.

That's it! You can now use your custom symbol in any Word document by selecting it from the symbol list.
