Some of things I create are brands. These things usually end up needing some legal addendum to help protect them, aka a copyright, trademark, or registered trademark symbol. As a designer, I use these keys often enough that I should know where they are, but every time, I have to hunt and peck…usually hitting every key on the keyboard while holding down some combination of the ALT and/or OPTION key.
And just this morning it happened. The client needs to add a trademark symbol. I stare blankly at my keyboard. “Isn’t there a Mac program for this?” Alfred says, “No.” and then comments, “You don’t know what you’re searching for, do you?”
I try Google…Nothing.
Somebody ought to right this down.
Trademark symbol (™): OPTION + 2
Registered Trademark symbol (®): OPTION + R
Copyright symbol (©): OPTION + G
