Speedy Insertion of Special Characters

If you frequently draft documents that require the use of special characters, like the umlaut and other foreign symbols, you know how hard it is to keep track of the keyboard combination for each character. Even if you keep a cheat sheet written down, if your document contains several of these foreign characters, your workflow is subject to constant interruption!

PopChar Win is an extremely useful application that makes the typing of special characters easy! In just two clicks of your mouse, you can invoke PopChar Win and select your special character, and then continue about your business -- no more pausing to look up key combos!

Suitable for newer applications that support Unicode, as well as with older applications that are limited to ASCII, PopChar Win gives you the power to work with all of the characters in any font. For fonts that contain thousands of characters, just enter the first few letters of what you're looking for (like "cub" for the cube root symbol) into PopChar Win's search box, and the application returns all matching symbols. Just click the one you need to instantly insert it into your document!

PopChar Win can automatically detect the font that you're currently using. Even better, PopChar Win can insert your characters as plain or formatted text, and the HTML mode lets you choose between numeric or named HTML codes!

Quick note regarding pricing: PopChar Win is sold in Euros. The USD price listed above is an approximation and will likely change slightly based on current exchange rates. We'll try to keep it accurate :-)

Please notice this movie showing a few of the product’s features.

Niels Erik Karkov I see that the program includes Tamil. I looked for Hindi but it does not seem to be available. I think that a small billion people writes hindi in the Deva script so is there any hope that it will be available?

Christoph Reichenberger @Niels: PopChar does not add any characters or fonts, but makes the characters available in the fonts you have installed. Devanagari has been defined in the Unicode standard (Range: 0900–097, and Devanagari Extended: Range: A8E0–A8FF). These Hindi characters are available only in a few fonts, e.g., in Arial Unicode MS, in Kokila, Mangal, Utsaah, see the enclosed image.

Louis H I am having problems getting the video to stream without problems, so for anyone else who is having problems as well, here is the same video found on Youtube......(It streams without problems for me on YouTube.)

By the way.... for anyone sitting on the fence for this one...... read the older comments, from previous deals for PopChar, especially the VERY helpful reviews by Avi S.

For the record.... As of 6:30 eastern time US - 03/05/13 - Discount brings the € price down to 15.00..... And this was converted by PayPal to $20.12. Just in case anyone was wondering. That can, of course, vary throughout the day should PayPal adjust the current exchange rate of: 1 USD = 0.745526 €.

(Just didn't want somebody to get all twisted out of shape over 35¢) ;-)

By the way.... it was very easy to enter the ¢ and € characters using PopChar.

Edit - I have found it fairly easy this morning (US eastern time) to use PopChar for adding Special Characters with Photoshop, as well as with text editors and word processors. I have not yet been able to get it to interact with Proshow Producer (for slide show production), but it is quite easy to have notepad open and simply access what I need there and then cut and past it into Proshow. So this is not simply for use with word processing, but can be of assistance with Graphic design as well. I am in the process of finding out which of my other graphic programs it will directly interact with. If i get a chance i will update this info later, but I make no promise to have such info figured out before the end of this deal.

I really like the ability to store favorites when it comes to specialty fonts, symbols and characters I use often when I am working with images. PopChar is going to make this a lot easier. Well worth full price, but even better with the discount.

Emil Kucera hello, should I be updating from my ver. 5.4 (51-1705) ?
and will it be a free update? The previous 'update' did not work (the one I got an email about), and there were no further messages other than that you are working on it.

Christoph Reichenberger @Emil: We need more info to answer your question thoroughly. Please contact our customer service by e-mail. popcharwin (at) ergonis.com. Thank you.
