anyone know of a font that has the copyright symbol in it?

Ummm... yeah... Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, Times New Roman... in fact... pretty much all fonts. Use the following code in HTML to see t his:

Ummmm.... no... that is an ampersand (&) and I am not looking to do it in html - I am wanting a font as I orginally stated...

As far as I know, the copyright symbol is only available as just that: a symbol.

Though, I've got to know what you would need the copyright symbol as part of a font for?

LOL... sorry... brain dump there... of course you are right :) glenmac has posted what I meant :)

Can you explain what you mean by this? I have read it a few times and I really can't get my head around what you are asking.

For the symbol to display on a page then the font needs to support it. If the font doesn't support it, you won't see the symbol, hence Jeff's comment above is correct because any of the common web fonts have it plus many more.

Hope this helps

Most of the common Windows normal text fonts have the copyright sign as Chr(169)

Perhaps the question should read,
"How do we get these 'special' characters to display? How would one produce the copyright symbol in, say, Notepad?"

I've actually forgotten how to do this, but I'm sure someone will tell us. :)
