Re: HELP w/ MS Word production symbol

[Ari Davidow <ari...>]

Robert, The character doesn't exist in the standard character sets used on any 
common English language computers. It is usually created by putting a small P 
in a circle from a symbol font (don't use an "O"--it won't be round or the 
right weight), or by getting a symbol font that contains the complete symbol. 
(The wingdings font on Windows machines is a good source of round, even-weight 
circles.) If you are printing something that will be reproducing from paper, 
you can use the Circle-R in the standard Windows Symbol font and use white-out 
on the leg of the "R". It is quite possible that there are public domain symbol 
fonts that contain this, but I don't know of one off-hand.
