    I am trying to add an accent to the word resume. I cannot find a key
    on the keyboard that will allow me to add the accent mark.


DISCUSSION


    To type a character with a diacritical mark (such as an acute accent
    or an umlaut), you press an Option key with a specific letter key, then
    you type the character. Example: type r,e,s,u,m,option-e,e. This will
    result in resumÄ appearing on the screen.


    DIACRITICAL MARK KEY COMBINATION
    ---------------- ---------------
    Grave accent (`) Option-`, then type the character
    Acute accent (œ) Option-e, then type the character
    Circumflex (^) Option-i, then type the character
    Tilde (~) Option-n, then type the character
    Umlaut (Œ) Option-u, then type the character
    The letter c with a cedilla (ì) Option-c

    If the character appears after the diacritical mark (rather than with
    it), then the marked character is not available in the font you are
    using.
