Are you struggling to add accents to your Google Docs document? This can be a challenge if you’re using a computer that doesn’t have a side keyboard with special characters. Fortunately, there’s an easy solution: the Easy Accents add-on for Google Docs.
To get started, click on the “Add-ons” button or menu tab and scroll down to “Get add-ons.” If you don’t see Easy Accents right away, search for it. Once you find it, click “Free” and grant permission for the add-on to access and manage your documents.
To access the Easy Accents tool, go to “Add-ons” > “Easy Accents” > “Easy Accents Start.” A side window will appear where you can select the language you want to use. Choose your language, and you’ll see all the accent marks you need.
To insert a letter with an accent, simply click on the corresponding accent mark. If you need to capitalize the letter, hold down the shift button and select the letter you want. And that’s it! When you’re done using the Easy Accents tool, click the X in the top corner to close the window.
Overall, the Easy Accents add-on is a helpful tool for anyone typing in a language that requires accent marks. So next time you’re struggling to type an umlaut, give this add-on a try!
