The clipboard is a temporary storage area in the computer memory where text and
graphics are stored as you cut, copy, or paste items within a program or between programs.
Every time you cut or copy text or graphics the item is automatically placed in the
clipboard. Then when you paste the item the clipboard contents is inserted where you
specify.
The clipboard always contains the most recent copy or cut item. For example, in a
document containing the words
NEW AGE
, you select and copy the word
NEW
and then
select and copy the word
AGE
. When you paste the clipboard contents only the word
AGE
appears.

HARACTERS
Special characters are symbols and letters that you may want to insert into a document that
do not appear on the keyboard. For example, a special character might be the trademark
symbol (™) or the plus minus symbol (±).
Using Special Characters
Special characters are inserted from a program.
1. From a program, such as Writer, position the cursor where you want to insert the char-
acter.

the Select Font field to show all the characters available.
Clicking and holding a character enlarges the character.
3. Click on the character you want to insert.
