The degree character in ºC can be typed by typing Option-0 (Option-Zero)


The typography experts here may differ, but I believe that you may find that close enough.

Hi Ian,


"On Numbers for Mac, I believe that Jerry's response on May 14 2013 was correct: The degree character in ºC can be typed by typing Option-0 (Option-Zero)"


Not quite.

Option-0 produces a similar character, but the Character viewer identifies it as the "Masculine ordinal indicator."

Option-* (Shift-option-8) produces the slightly smaller (and rounder) "Degree symbol"
