putting copyright symbol in PCB

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 15 years ago

I'd like to put the copyright ("c" within a circle) symbol within text on a

PCB, like this:

 

 

 

I tried to use the ascii character copied into the clipboard and in the text

info dialog window it shows fine, but on the PCB it is a comma-looking

character.

 

I know that I could manually draw it, but then if I move it around there is

a greater chance I'll not properly copy all the pieces.  I could also make

it a package, but again it would then be seperate from the text that may

move around the board throughout layout.

 

Is there a more inherent internal mechanism to support high-order ascii

characters such as the copyright symbol?

 

thanks,

..dane

    ALT+<0169> on the num pad works for me.

    If you draw "Text" in the PCB (not schematic!) on any layer, within the

    dialog box, yes, alt-0169 enters the copyright character.  But as soon as

    you actually place it on the PCB, it reverts to what resembles a funky

    backwards "F" ...   If you edit the text, then again within the dialog box

    it properly shows as the copyright symbol.  But again on the PCB itself it

    reverts back to the funky backwards "F"..

     

    Maybe the font I'm using is different???

     

    I'm using eagle 5.6.0, BTW.
