  • Good question--this, CSS styles, and custom nodes are probably the main three questions I see when RTF functionality comes up in training or implementations.

According to the documentation you can add characters to a file named "SpecialCharacters.xml", stored under "\Tridion\web\WebUI\Models\CME\Configuration".

You need to specify several attributes for the character to be displayed:

<Entries>
  <Entry>       
    <Value>string or character</Value>
    <Description>Generic Description</Description>
    <Description lang="User Language ID 1">Description for User Language 1</Description>
    <Description lang="User Language ID 2">Description for User Language 2</Description>
  </Entry>
</Entries>
