Type it Easy is a free software that allows you to easily insert many typographical characters which are usually unavailable on the keyboard into any application. For example, it can be em and en dashes, typographic quotation marks, copyright and trademark symbols, euro and other currency signs, miscellaneous math characters, diacritical marks and so on.
It works very simply: just hold down the control key (the AltGr button by default) and press the necessary alphanumeric key. For example, pressing AltGr and the “C” key simultaneously will type the copyright symbol: ©. While pressing AltGr and “E” will insert the euro sign: €.
