With no copyright key on your keyboard, how do you insert the copyright symbol when you need it? Surprisingly, there are several easy ways to do this. Wherever you are online, the copyright symbol comes with you using these methods.

Keyboard shortcut for the copyright symbol

The easiest way in most cases is to use a keyboard shortcut. While it won't work in every app and website, it often does.

• Windows - Alt + 0169 
• Mac - Option + G

This works for most text editors, both online and offline. While the Mac version is a little easier to remember, you'll quickly get used to the Windows shortcut.

If you are using Microsoft Word, you can also use Ctrl+Alt+CPlease note that this only works in Word.

Copy and paste the copyright symbol.

If you don't need to insert a copyright symbol often, copying and pasting it from an online source may be the simplest option.

HTML code

If you're inserting a copyright symbol using HTML, there are several ways to use it.
