Bold Point Symbol - Printing Methods in Text

The symbol "Bold point" is a special character used when editing electronic documents. It has many interpretations. Typing the appropriate character using the keyboard is problematic. The thing is that it is simply absent on the keyboard panel. Therefore, further we will consider all existing methods for printing bold dots in text editors. Let's study possible action algorithms using the example of Word.

Text formatting

There is no thick dot on the keyboard. But you can insert a regular point, and then edit it. In this case, the symbol at the bottom of the line appears in the text.

To implement the task you need:

1. Switch keyboard layout to English.
2. Click on the "Yu" button.
3. Select the appropriate character.
4. Click RMB and in the drop-down list click on the font.
5. Set the value to "Bold" in the menu that appears.
6. Confirm action.

Usually this technique is not used in practice. But there are many alternative solutions to the task.

In the lists

The symbol "Fat point" is most often found in the design of bulleted lists. For this option, you will have to use not the insertion of characters, but the formatting of the existing text.

How to do it? The user will need:

1. Select all items in the list.
2. Click RMB and select the "Lists" command.
3. Go to the "Labeled" tab.
4. Click on the thumbnail with dot markers.
5. Confirm document formatting by clicking on Ok.

Windows and its services

The Bold point symbol can be inserted into text files in different ways. For example, some users work with a service called "Character Table". It is needed to study unique characters and their further insertion into the text.

The instruction for the implementation of the task has the following interpretation:

1. Go to the "Start" and find there the "Symbol Table". You can type the appropriate phrase in the search bar.
2. Go to Windings font.
3. Find the bold point in the proposed menu and select it with the cursor.
4. Click on "Select" and then on the "Copy" button.

Now what? It remains to open a text document, then select the place to print the character and click RMB + "Insert" / "Control" + M (in Russian).

Text editor options

The bullet symbol is printed differently in the text. The main thing is to understand exactly how to act under certain circumstances.

The following tip is more widespread. We are talking about the built-in "Word" features. For example, the option "Insert a character."

How to use it? In our case, the user must adhere to the following algorithm of actions:

1. Select the Insert tool.
2. Click on the line "Symbol".
3. Click on the drop-down menu in the "Font" section and specify Windings there.
4. Double-click on the symbol of the bold point of one type or another.

This technique will help you quickly insert the mentioned character into a text document. It is in great demand among users and does not require any special skills or knowledge.

ASCII Codes

You can set a thick point on the keyboard using special codes. They are called alt codes. This is the numeric identifier of the symbol; all Windows signs have it.

To print a thick point, you will need:

1. Open a text document. It is recommended to immediately place the cursor in the place of the intended print.
2. Press the Num Lock button. The corresponding identifier should light up on the computer.
3. Clamp any "Alt" on the keyboard.
4. Dial code 7 or 0149.
5. View on screen.

In the course of the actions performed, the user will be able to see the “•” symbol (without quotes). This technique is most often found in practice. It allows you to quickly print any characters in text documents.

Unicode to help the user

The "Fat Point" symbol is sometimes inserted into the text using Unicode. To do this, you need:

1. Write U + 25CF.
2. Press Alt and X (English) on the keyboard.
