Adding Different Fonts/Characters to Horse Names

[KayaineII]

I've seen several people with different fonts or characters in their horse's names, and I was wondering how people have managed it. I want to add a special tag for some of my horses, but I'm not sure how. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi Kaya, not sure which operating system you're using but on Windows, you open the character map. Instructions here. You scroll through it, double click on the character you like and you're able to copy it from there.

Mac instructions.

Hmm, I tried doing that, but it just converts it into regular font. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Could you post an example of a horse with a different font?

This is one of the font examples I can think of off the top of my head. http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/395554

These are not normal letters in a different font, they are math symbols ;)
Set your font in character map to "Cambria Math" and copy from there.

Lol, still doesn't work. Oh well. XD

Can't you just copy from here? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U ... characters

Since I am one of those breeders who use fonts in the horse names I can be kind enough to reveal the "secret" of how I did it. I even think I was first to use those kind of letters in the horses' names (I had not seen anyone using letters, only symbols before I started using ℬℳ in the names) and then other players started doing it too.

I have a list of symbols saved as a note at another online horse game, which I copied the letters from, and I experimented with them to see which ones work in this game. Unfortunately not all letters in a certain font work, as it leaves an error message when trying to save the text where you edit your farm for example.

The reason I started using letters with a certain font was to have a special "mark" on the horses I breed that is unique and is easy to spot in a list of horses (when looking at the rankings and competition results). It's not unique anymore if everyone else use it too, but I suppose it is just a question about time before everyone knows how to do it anyway so perhaps I could make a list of all the letters and symbols I know will work to copy and paste in the game.
