Scientific Characters in Rich Text Box

[RickM]

Can infopath use 3rd party scientific fonts? We need to be able to
insert special scientific characters in our form. The chars would
need to be entered into rich text boxes. HTML has support for many
scientific chars and this would probably suffice, but is there an
elegant solution that would allow people to easily enter these
characters? Since the rich text box just uses HTML for formatting
bulleted lists etc it seems that this should be possible.

Thanks
RickM

Would you mind sharing your answer, Rick? Other people may search the
newsgroup and find this as something they need to do as well, and your
answer would be a great resource for them.

Sorry I didnt explain but it was so simple I felt kinda stupid.

Just as in Word and other Microsoft Office products simply go to the
Insert Menu, and select symbol. IP (and other Office products)
display a box with lots of symbols (including greek, which scientific
people like to use beta, Pi, alpha etc.....). To insert just click
away on the desired symbol.
