How To Insert a Arrow Down Symbol in Your Documents?<\/strong><\/p>\nHave a look at this comprehensive guide with different techniques for inserting or typing the Down Arrow Symbol text or Downward Arrow Sign (\u2193) anyplace on your PC keyboard, such as in Microsoft Word\/Excel\/PowerPoint, or in your browser, such as Google Docs.<\/span><\/p>\nYou’ll learn how to access this symbol using either a Windows or a Mac keyboard, including the arrow down Alt code and shortcut option.<\/span><\/p>\nThe keyboard has multiple dual-purpose keys for both Windows and Mac. That is, symbols are readily accessible as additional keys on the keyboard. You may simply include such symbols in your work by hitting two or more keys at the same time. For example, Shift + 1 gives you the Exclamation (!) symbol.<\/span><\/p>\nOther symbols, however, are not written as second keys on the keyboard. This makes typing tough. The arrow down symbol text (\u2193) is one of these symbols. Typing becomes really challenging for you if you need to include some of these symbols into your work on a daily basis. However, this guide will help you use the symbols easily:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\nName of Symbol<\/span><\/td>\n | Down Arrow sign<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nSymbol Text<\/span><\/td>\n | \u2193<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nSymbol Alt Code<\/span><\/td>\n | 25<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\nShortcut for Windows<\/span><\/td>\n | Alt + 25<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n <\/p>\n 1.Use Insert Symbol Dialogue Box<\/strong><\/p>\nThis method is compatible with both Windows and Mac.
