The New Indian Rupee Symbol was introduced a couple of days back. And I am sure many of you must be wondering how you are going to type it in a document using your keyboard. Well, I have found a solution to this.

Though it may take some time for the Symbol to appear on your keyboard, but can right away be typed as a character, using the newly created font thanx to Foradian Technologies.

The font is named ‘Rupee Foradian’ & it has been made with support for Indian Currency Symbol.

Now, How to Download and use the font:

How to type the Rupee Symbol:

• Open Microsoft Word and select ‘Rupee Foradian’ from the drop down fonts list and press the key just above the Tab key on your keyboard and you will get the New Rupee Symbol. Go ahead, try it.

• It works in Open Office and Microsoft Works Words Processor as well as this is the full version (Version 2.0) of the font and it contains all the gylphs (letters) and is based on BitstreamVera

So what are you waiting for… download and be among the first ones to start using it.
