How do I encircle a number or a letter?
I am trying to set up a template to help others understand how to work
through a set of calculations. I want to have the encircled numbers in order to indicate that 5 is multiplied by 3 and then subtracted by 7 for example. I want to place each number in a circle to avoid confusion in places where a number is added, multiplied etc. with another amount instead of a previously calculated quantity. Thanks if you can help. |

Arial Unicode has circled numbers from 1 to 20. An alternative is to put a
border around the number; it would be a box instead of a circle though and may not work with versions before W2002.

How do I encircle a number or a letter?
I only just noticed that in the Font part of the Home tab, I have
buttons for putting a character, a selection, or a whole line in a box, or a character in a circle. Are they there only because I have Japanese installed? or does everyone have them? (They work for ordinary letters.)

I don't have those buttons in my font group. But the border button in the
paragraph group would put a box around as little as a single character.

Yes, the Enclose Characters command is part of the support for East Asian
languages, I believe. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "grammatim" wrote in message ...
