Click-Copy & Paste

Studioblog Image

I recently ran across this website called Copy Paste Character. It is a extremely user friendly site that allows you to easily click on one of the characters to copy it, then go into your text field and paste it by either hitting ⌘+v or right clicking and clicking on 'paste'. It is a great resource for webdesigners because it has all of the pesky characters that you have to either memorize or hit random buttons on the keyboard until you finally find what you are looking for.

As far as I've tested, the characters work with webfonts, and most fonts in design software (if the font has that character in its arsenal). I've only worked with the site a little bit in Firefox 3.0 and Safari, so try it out on other browsers and let me know if you run into any problems. Enjoy!

Nice Find! Way better than OS X's Character Palette.
