Type Special Characters On a Chromebook (Accents, Symbols, Em Dashes)

Typing special characters with a Chromebook can be done using unicode. Here’s a handy reference to show you how.

I work part-time as an editor, which means I spend a lot of my time replacing hyphens with em dashes. So, when I bought my Chromebook, my life became a little different.

I’ve always typed em dashes normally to press Alt and type 0151 on the numerical keypad. The only thing is that Chromebooks don’t have numerical keypads. In fact, most laptops don’t anymore.

In a pinch, you can google the special character and copy and paste the special characters in. But no one’s got time for that. In Word, you can use special characters from the Insert ribbon. But Chromebooks don’t have Word.

You get the idea. For those of you who’ve skimmed all this and are just looking for the solution, here it is:

How to Type Special Characters with a Chromebook: Unicode Input

When you press Ctrl+Shift+U in an input field on a Chromebook, you’ll get a little underlined “u” on your screen. Take a look at the example below.

chromebook unicode

Now, type in the Unicode entry for the special character you want. An em dash is “2014.”

unicode chromebook special characters

Hit enter, and voila, em dash: —

2014 for an em dash is easy to remember because 2014 is when St. Vincent released her self-titled album, St. Vincent. But for all other Unicode characters, you should check out this handy reference: Unicode-Table.com

Wikipedia also has a good breakdown of all the Unicode characters.

That table is massive, of course. So here’s a handy reference for the ones you’d most frequently use on your Chromebook.

Typing Subscript and Superscript in Unicode

The Unicode entries for subscript are U+208X, where X is the number you want in subscript. For example, H₂0 uses CTRL+SHIFT+U and then 2082.

The Unicode entries for superscript are CTRL+SHIFT+U and then 207x, where X is the number you want in superscript. For example, 10⁷ uses CTRL+SHIFT+U and then 2077.

That is, except for 1, 2, and 3, which are CTRL+SHIFT+U and then 00B9, CTRL+SHIFT+U and then 00B2, and CTRL+SHIFT+U and then 00B3, respectively.

Typing Punctuation in Unicode

Use the handy table below for your dashes and other esoteric punctuation.

    A solution that works better for me is this: change your keyboard to US International Keyboard (Settings/Device/Keyboard/Change language and input settings/Input method). When you´ve done that, to get, for example, an á, you type an apostrophe followed by a; ò is the grave accent (top left) followed by o; ñ is the tilde (top left) folowed by n; Ü is double quotes followed by Shift+u, and so on. Experiment on your own; it´s quite easy to get used to. If you need the accent symbol on it´s own (as in the word it´s), simply type it twice.

    This system doesn´t give access to all diacritical signs used in European languages like Polish, Czech, etc., or the German ß, but at least it´s quicker than having to look up the Unicode value.

    • Matthias Walter Schoener

      November 9, 2019 at 8:07 pm

      @Johan — Agree with your points, just want to point out that the ¨scharfes s¨ *is* actually available with the international keyboard. I have German language enabled on my US Pixelbook. And with the Intl keyboard activated, if I type + s, I get ß.

      • Matthias Walter Schoener

        November 9, 2019 at 8:09 pm

        that should read ¨right alt + s¨. My apologies.

      • CostaBuddie

        November 2, 2021 at 7:15 am

        So, the rigt Alt works like Alt Gr on a normal keyboard? That would be a great help.

    Mr. Busch. Thanks for that. As an editor, you might be able to amend the article for its online appearance. Consider the following:

    “Now, type in the unicode entry for the special character you want. An em dash is “2014.”

    [Instructions]

    unicode chromebook special characters
    Hit enter and voila, em dash: —”

    The last line should read – Release the control+shift+U, then hit enter and….

    This did not work for me. I tried it both holding control shift the entire time, and releasing it after the control-shift-u. Both ways, I got an umlaut, ok, but the letter I wanted was not there. An umlaut alone does me little good!

    • Lemon

      September 6, 2022 at 8:40 am

      You need to let go of U and continue holding Control & Shift, then press whatever numbers/letters you need.

    Bookmarked in a heartbeat. Found what I needed. Also for people who are here for math, (Hi, I feel you.) I originally came for pi. It’s CTRL+SHIFT+U+03C0, then press enter. (π) Didn’t find it here, found it elsewhere, but I see a few comments coming for math.

      or Ctrl + Shift + u + 221c = ∜

    How to Type a ₹ symbol using CTRL + Shift + U option.

  72. Karim

    July 16, 2023 at 12:27 am

    It is true that Word™ is not on Chromebook, Google Docs is, and it, too, has “insert symbol” available. It even allows one to draw the symbol one wants, and it finds it.

    E.g., draw three dots and it finds the ellipsis, or type “ellipsis” and it finds it in regular, vertical, Mongolian, Lao, et al., or draw a ‘tm’ shape, or a ‘C’/’R’ in a circle and get ™, ®, or ©, as needed. The drawing method is pretty neat when one has a touchscreen, or when one knows the shape of the symbol, but not the name.

    Simply put, one does not need to remember nor lookup Unicode numbers, but type the name, or draw the shape. Yes, typing, [CTRL]+[SHFT]+U 204B may be quick compared to typing “reversed pilcrow” or even drawing a pilcrow, but can one remember “204B” when one needs to type, “⁋”? Besides, [CTRL]+[SHFT]+U only works with numbers, so [CTRL]+[SHFT]+U 204B gives the same result as, [CTRL]+[SHFT]+U 204, which is, “Ȅ”.
