I can insert symbols into my Word doc using insert > symbol. But when I try to copy and paste them elsewhere in the document (to save time) I get a . How can I resolve this? Thanks!

Answer

You are likely pasting into a section of the document where the font does not have the character you are pasting.  Find out the font of the source character and apply it to the pasted character.  You might also try keep source formatting when pasting.
