How do I insert symbols, the date and hyperlinks?

These commands all put something into your text at the cursor. Double-click a text box and click where it should go before you start. If no text box is selected, Symbol and Date & Time put what you choose in a new text box.

Insert a symbol

The groups hold the symbols people use most: dashes and quotes, currency signs including € £ ¥ ₹ and the Thai baht ฿, fractions and math signs, arrows, ©, ®, ™, check marks and the ☐ ☑ boxes for forms. Korva doesn’t have Publisher’s full character map of every character in a font. For anything else, use your computer’s own character viewer and paste.

Insert today’s date or the time

1. Click in the text where the date goes.
2. Click Insert›, then Date & Time.
3. Click the format you want, such as October 30, 2026 or 10/30/2026.

The formats follow the publication language, so a Polish publication offers Polish dates. To skip the window, press ⌥⇧DAlt+Shift+D for today’s date or ⌥⇧TAlt+Shift+T for the time. On a Mac, Alt is the Option key.

For page numbers, use Insert›, then Page Number. See Page numbers and sections.

Add a hyperlink

1. Double-click the text box and select the words to link, such as a web address. To link a whole object (a picture or a button shape), click it once instead.
2. Click Insert›, then Hyperlink, or press ⌘KCtrl+K.
3. Choose what to link to:
   • Web page: type the Address, such as https://example.org.
   • Email: type the Email address. Clicking it opens a new email.
   • Page in this file: type the Page number.
4. Click Add link.

Links work in the PDF you export. On paper they are ordinary text, so put the address itself on the page if people need to type it.

To change or remove a link, select the linked words (or object) and press ⌘KCtrl+K again. Change the address and click Update link, or click Remove link.
