But I have a manuscript file with no tables in it, and the same symbol shows up when my cursor is right at the document's margins. It's like there is a hidden table or something. It's very strange and doesn't happen in any other of my Word docs. Does anyone know why? The other thing about this document is it is 1.7 MB but there are no photos or images imbedded. It's all type.

It seems like it should be about half a megabyte at best.

Some of the methods in this article do not work in Microsot Word for Mac 2011. Please see the updated post for a screencast describing the current best method (in my opinion). Creating a maths worksheet in Microsoft Word without using the proper symbols does not present well – I’m sure you’ve seen 2 * 2 = 4 or 2 × 2 = 4 rather than 2 × 2 = 4.

How to View Mac Files on a Windows PC Even though OS X can read Windows formatted hard drives just fine, the opposite is still not true, even with Windows 10. Granted, OS X can’t write to a Windows formatted disk, but at least it can read the contents of the drive and you can copy the data to your Mac computer.

Title basically asks it; I have done the Mac OS X's built-in character viewer and also Insert>Symbol in Word, but cannot find the symbol. I have found work arounds regarding using the unicode #305, but I tried it and the line does not center above the x when inserted. Type the letter, in this case x, then Insert > Symbol > Combining Diacritical Marks > position cursor to right of x > from the Combining Diacritical Marks section of the Symbol chart, insert desired diacritical mark thus x̄ml>.

My previous post, is one of the most popular on this site. In that post, I gave shortcuts for inserting mathematical symbols into Word – the post was specific to the Windows version of Word. As I’ve been a Mac user for a year, it’s time to make a similar post for Mac users. Unfortunately the Mac is not as nice as a Windows machine for inserting symbols using the keyboard (rather than the mouse) which I prefer as it’s quicker.

The multiplication symbol, for one, is not accessible by a keyboard shortcut. Keyboard shortcuts On the Mac, there are a few keyboard shortcuts by pressing and holding the Option/Alt key (⌥) whilst pressing another character on the keyboard. Or a combination of the Option/Alt key and the Shift key (⇧). For example, the division symbol (÷) is ⌥ and /.

The degree symbol (°) is ⇧ and ⌥ and 8. See the download below for a cheat sheet with more shortcuts. Word’s Object Palette In Word 2008 for Mac (I think the previous version has this as well) open the Toolbox.

At the top there are tabs for various parts of the Toolbox. The second one is the Object Palette (click thumbnail below for a larger view). Then, select the copyright symbol (©) which takes you to a palette of symbols.

Clicking a symbol here will insert it into your documents. This is the quickest way I can find to insert a multiplication symbol without using more complex methods described below. AutoCorrect Have you noticed how Word automagically corrects common spelling mistakes?

That’s called AutoCorrect, and I think this might be the best way to insert commonly used symbols that don’t have a keyboard shortcut. I’ll use the multiplication symbol as an example. First, you will need to use the previous method to insert a multiplication symbol into a new document. Then, copy that symbol to the clipboard.
