I had a problem today in that I was writing about the Mac but using a PC. I needed to type the character for the Command key on the Mac keyboard which, as you might know, is this cute twirly shape. But since I was working on a PC I didn’t have fonts which contained the character. After an hour or so of research, I found the character.
Wingdings is not available on all computers, and so the intended characters may not appear on computers running non-Microsoft operating systems such as Mac OS 9, Mac OS X 10, Linux or Android. The same problems are found with the Webdings, Wingdings 2 and Wingdings 3 fonts – they should not be used in Web pages.

Just now i have tried that one Wingdings is not mention.so most probably it should not be supported – Ghouse Jun 20 '12 at 12:47 If it is not mentioned it is not included properly i have tried at my side its working fine. Try including the font as i said and NSLog(@'%@',familyNames); to get the list.
Riot of the numbers cracking. As luck would have it, it was where I should have looked to begin with, in my Wingdings font. To get it, in any document or any application that supports fonts, click to use the Wingdings font and type the lowercase z – voila – the Command key character.
So far, so good. But what about the other keys, like the Apple key and the Alt key on older keyboards? In the interests of helping you get everything you need in one post, if not in one font, here’s how to get hold of the characters for the Apple key and the Alt key:
No, even working w/RTF document: entering chars turns to LucidaG, select and apply font does nothing. Opening Word document in TE, which displays the already-entered chars (ZapfD and Wingdings were my tests) correctly changes them to LucidaG if you try to edit them or re-apply font formatting. At a guess, the Wingdings fonts are used for bullets. Note that you could also try deleting the ListGal.dat file in your Windows user profile and see if that fixes the crashing bulleted lists. To locate the file, first display hidden files and folders in File Explorer/Windows Explorer. Stefan Blom, Microsoft Word MVP.

Once installed the font contains a range of characters including the Mac Alt key symbol and the Apple icon. To get the Alt key select the Virtue font and type Alt + 0221 on the keyboard. The Apple symbol is a little more difficult as it is a hex value so, switch to Virtue font, type F000 into a Word document and immediately (don’t press space) press Alt + X. This little bit of keyboard magic creates the little Apple logo for you. If you need it elsewhere, make it in Word and copy and paste it to the application you need to use it in.
