So the therefore symbol on the left is the one I want and the one on the right (U+2234) is the one default one that word accepts as a symbol. I can insert the one on the right with a CMD+OPT+T custom keyboard shortcut (achieved by going to insert (Font: Symbol), selecting the therefore image then keyboard shortcut). Is there anyone to use the therefore symbol I want over the default one? I've tried text replacement in system preferences & word but they won't accept my preferred symbol.
Possible solutions that might work but I don't know where to start:
- Is there a keyboard language that supports this exact symbol?
- Is there a clipboard manager that I can use to store this symbol and then have a hotkey to use it
Usually, I copy my preferred symbol from googling "therefore symbol" and copying the symbol in the immediate definition but this prevents me from copying anything else.
Type 2235 and press Alt+X. This will insert the symbol in MS Mincho, which is perhaps not the best choice. If character 2235 is not included in the font you're using, you might prefer to insert it from Arial Unicode MS, using the Insert | Symbol dialog.
Thanks, Suzanne! It works like a charm. I read about alt+x elsewhere but could not make it work. The choice of fonts as you noted made the difference. Thanks.
