How to write sigma symbol in word

To insert the micro sign or mu letter (sometimesincorrectly called a mew symbol) in a Word document, you havedifferent ways:

I. Using the Symbol font:

This method is very useful when you need to insert symbols rarely andit works only for Latin or Greek letters.

Anytime, when you type the text in the Word document, you can switch to the Symbolfont and use the corresponding Latin letters to enter Greek letters:

1. Click Ctrl+Shift+Q to switch your currentfont to the Symbol font.

2. Use symbols like normal font (e.g. in Symbolfont keyboard button 'a' equals Greek letter 'α', keyboard button 'b'equals Greece letter 'β', ..., 'l' ->'λ', 'm' ->'μ',..., 'w' -> 'ω', etc.):

Note: This method works for inserting only one letter. Thus, if you want toinsert several symbols, you need to repeat these steps for each insertion.

After entering one letter using the Symbol font, the next character is entered usingthe previous font.

If you click Ctrl+Shift+Q twice, Word does not switch to the previous font, and theSymbol font doesn't stop to work after the first entered symbol. Thus, you will needto change the current font and style later.

II. Using the Equation:

This way is perfect if you don't need to care about the format and compatibilitywith previous versions of Microsoft Office (a recommended approach for physicalscience and mathematics, which require a lot of math in the text with consistentfonts for all equations and symbols):
