Instructions for typing the Danish letters Æ, Ø, and Å (Windows and MAC)
There are a few options to type the Danish letters Æ, Ø, and Å into a program such as PAF, FamilySearch, a search field of a database, a word processing document or your e-mail.
You can:
- Activate the Danish Keyboard (for Microsoft operating systems).
- Use the 10 key pad, while holding down the Alt key and typing a code (for Microsoft operating systems).
- Copy and paste the Danish letters Æ, Ø, and Å from another document that already has them.
Here are the instructions for all three methods
Activate the Danish Keyboard for Windows 10[edit | edit source]
Click on the following:
a) The Windows icon (lower left screen)
b) Settings (it's the sprocket icon)
c) Time & Language
d) Region & Language
e) Add a language
f) Click on Danish
b) Settings (it's the sprocket icon)
c) Time & Language
d) Region & Language
e) Add a language
f) Click on Danish
Using the Danish Keyboard in Windows
a) After activating the Danish keyboard, you should see a little icon in the lower right hand corner of your screen that appears as an EN.
b) When you click on the EN a pop up list appears with the option of choosing English or Danish. Choose Danish. Now the EN icon has changed to DA
c) As long as the little icon shows DA, you are using a Danish keyboard. The Danish keyboard provides the Æ, Ø, and Å as follows:
- Æ is the ; (or : ) key
- Ø is the ‘ (or “ ) key
- Å is the [ (or { ) key
You can type the upper case or lower case of each letter by using holding down the Shift key as usual. While the Danish keyboard is activated, other have been rearranged as well.
Type the Æ, Ø, Å and ß using the 10 key pad and the Alt key.[edit | edit source]
When you want to type in a Danish letter you hold down the Alt key and type a code into the 10 key pad. Once you release the Alt key, the letter will appear. The codes are:
- Æ is 146
- æ is 145
- Ø is 0216
- ø is 0248
- Å is 143
- å is 134
- ß is 225
If you are using a laptop which does not have a numeric keypad, you can use the Fn (function) key with the Alt key to access these special characters. The actions of the function key are usually below the main key action (e.g. under the J key on my keyboard is a number 1) and may also be in a different color. The keys used for numeric entries are usually as follows: M = 0, J = 1, K = 2, L = 3, U = 4, I = 5, O = 6, 7 = 7, 8 = 8, and 9 = 9. For example, to enter the Æ character, hold down both the Fn key and the Alt key, then type each key in sequence: J, then U, then O; when you release the Fn and Alt keys, the Æ character will appear in your text entry box.
Type the Æ, Ø, Å and ß using the Unicode code (Linux)[edit | edit source]
On a Linux distribution you can use a control key combination and the Unicode code for the character.
First, hold down the Ctrl and Shift keys on the left side of the keyboard and press U. Then type the code for the character and hit Enter. For example, using the left side press Ctrl-Shift-U then c6 then Enter will produce Æ. More codes are:
- Æ is c6
- æ is e6
- Ø is d8
- ø is f8
- Å is c5
- å is e5
- ß is df
You may type leading '0's if you like, such as 00c6. For further reference, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters - look for the glyph you need then use the Code (U+00c6) from the second column.
Copy and paste the Æ, Ø, and Å from another document[edit | edit source]
a) This can be done by highlighting the letter, then with the mouse pointer on the highlighted text, do a right click on the mouse and choose copy (or hold down the Ctrl key while you type the letter c).
b) Move your mouse pointer to the location you want to paste. Click one time so the location curser is active. Right click on the mouse and choose paste (or hold down the Ctrl key while you type the letter v).
c) These characters are also in many of the fonts found in the Character Map (Start/All Programs/Accessories/Character Map) and can be selected, copied and pasted as above.
Instructions for MAC[edit | edit source]
1. Hold down the Option key, and type a u (the letter u).
2. Let go of the keys (don't hold them down for step 3).
3. Type the vowel over which you want the umlaut to appear.
2. Let go of the keys (don't hold them down for step 3).
3. Type the vowel over which you want the umlaut to appear.
Hold the Shift key down in step 3 Above.
Option+A = å
Shift+Option+A = Å
Option+A = å
Shift+Option+A = Å
Special K Macros
Option+' (apostrophe key) = æ
Shift+Option+' = Æ
Shift+Option+' = Æ
Option+O = ø
Shift+Option+O = Ø
Shift+Option+O = Ø

Path // www.yourhtmlsource.com → Text → SPECIAL CHARACTERS
There is a huge list of extra characters and symbols in existence that couldn’t be crammed onto a keyboard, so HTML allows you to use them through a series of special codes commonly known as “ampersand characters” or “character entities.”
You can create these characters by starting with an ampersand (&), followed by a few letters, and ending with a semicolon (;). For instance, the entity
©
creates a copyright symbol ©. All entities are case sensitive. There are also numerical codes for most characters — these are harder to remember, but may enjoy better browser support.Page Navigation:

Character Sets
Every document you create should have a character set specified for it. Your charset, for short, is the range of letters, numbers and other symbols that your document will be able to use without having to encode the character with one of the entities below. If you use the right encoding, you can just type whatever character you need directly into the text without having to do anything more.
Most pages that are written in any form of English will use a character set called iso-8859-1. An even better character set is called Unicode, and is designated by the code UTF-8. Unicode is a set of nearly every character ever used, so you will not have to escape very many characters when writing. To make sure all browsers know this is the character set you’re using, it is recommended that you put this line into all of your documents’
head
section:<meta http-equiv='Content-Type'>
This means you’ll be able to use any character that’s in UTF-8 by simply typing it into the document.
If you are forced for some reason to use a more limited charset like iso-8859-1, and you want to use a character not in the charset, like a Greek Theta (Θ) for instance, you’ll have to encode it as an entity by typing its corresponding code:
Θ
.Markup-related Symbols
You’ll probably find the characters >, < and & on your keyboard, but if you’re using them as part of your page’s text you should always encode them as their entity counterparts. Otherwise, a browser may think you’re starting a tag or entity and mess things up.

Caution: If you are putting in the code correctly but the symbol isn’t coming up you may want to check which font the text is in. Some typefaces won’t have the symbol included.
You may also hit upon the rather more thorny issue of browser support. Tables of supported special characters are sent out with each new HTML specification, so your browser simply may not support a certain representation. If you haven’t already, try the numerical value, they’re better-supported.
