You may not find it in the Font menu when composing your text, but you can use the Webdings or Wingdings fonts when composing text for a milepost if you want the message in your milepost to be more interesting and exciting.

To do so, simply choose an existing font from the font list as you are creating the message in your milepost — let’s say you chose Arial from the font list.

Then, simply replace the name Arial with either Webdings or Wingdings before posting your message and voilà — you have the symbol of your choice!

Click the Reply w/Quote button as if replying to my milepost to see how this milepost has been formatted if further assistance is needed.

ALERT: This milepost has been edited due to a useful tip from jfe that FlyerTalk members who use the Firefox or Mozilla browsers cannot see the Webdings or Wingdings characters, so please use them sparingly.
