Foreign language accents in Zotero

jem395 · August 22, 2008

How can I use foreign language accents (in my case French) in Zotero? I tried using the "Ctrl ' " for an accent aigu, which works in Word, but to no avail in Zotero.

For some reason, Word uses different shortcuts for editing than the rest of Windows uses.

A third-party program is linked there, as is the MS tutorial on how to do this without additional software.

Thanks so much! I was able to use accented characters by switching to the US international keyboard in the control panel.

The US Intl Keyboard change did not work for me.
