Typing Spanish Accents
How to Type in Spanish with your
Keyboard
 The Spanish language characters are very close to English but many
of them have accents above the characters. When you start working
with translation software you will need to type letters with the
Spanish accents.
You have a couple of options, first you can easily
change your keyboard settings in windows and then toggle between
the Spanish and the English by hitting "Alt + shift". Second,
if you only need a couple of Spanish characters, you can use your
number pad to make ASCII characters. Choose the option below that
works best for you.
Option 1: Type in
only a few accents in Spanish Manually use your number pad to input
ASCII character. For instructions go to our Foreign
Language Characters section.
Option 2: In Windows configure your keyboard to use a different language or
keyboard layout, use the appropriate method for your version of Windows.
