I can tell the font has that glyph, but I have no idea how to use it.
There’s no keyboard shortcut, and copying and pasting either from the character map in FontExplorer or the web just results in a ?. I’ve tried PopCharX, but it doesn’t even show up in the character map there.
Quark Xpress 7 is supposed to have a glyphs palette (like Indesign has had for years now), but until then how do I get to this character?
Wouldn’t you just use an “x” or “X”?
Ouch; I hope you wouldn’t.
[edit: deleted dumb suggestion after reading the original post a bit better...]
May be a bit heretical to suggest this: but unless the font is something particularly unusual, are you able to insert a multiplication sign out of another - more standard - font? (after all, it’s not the most, er, characterful of characters)
Ever since I chose to block pop-ups, my toaster’s stopped working.
I generally use option(alt)+y in Symbol.
