![]() Lots of people were complaining about the poor diacritical mark support in Google Docs. Searching for a solution online revealed that we were not the only ones who were struggling with this issue. “It’s ridiculous that Google Docs can’t do such basic things when it’s so easy in Word and Outlook” was the general consensus. Prior to the move to Google, our language teachers knew all the various keyboard shortcuts to enter these characters into a program like Word or Outlook, and life was good.Īfter the move to Gmail and Docs however, these same keyboard shortcuts no longer worked, making the potential move to Google Docs seem like a bad idea for language teaching. French, for example, uses accented characters like é, è, ç, å and so on. We teach several different languages here at PLC Sydney and many of them requires the use of special characters.
