Hello,

It is a requirement of my US suppliers that I insert a ™ sign next to some products.

I can insert a © symbol into my description using keystrokes but when I do the same thing using alt+0153 for the ™ sign I get a solid line instead.

can anyone help please?

Thanks

Pauline

Hi Pauline
Just tried it out. You are correct that it shows as vertical lines in the template - but when you click on offline preview - it shows up correctly as ™
Regards
Howard

Thanks Howard,

I didn't get as far as previewing it as I was getting frustrated at seeing the solid line.. You obviously have more patience than I do!!

Best wishes,

Pauline

Why not embed the HTML trademark symbol. In a product name or description you put

!!<&amp;trade;>!!

However if you put it in the Product name then it works fine on the web pages but displays !!<&amp;trade;>!! on the printed reports.

If you put it in the product description then everything is fine as these are not displayed on the reports.
