Sorry, I missed a step. 1. Using the alt code process (that is, hold down the Alt key and enter the number on the numeric keypad), enter alt + 0162. 2. Select the symbol that appears and apply the Symbol font to it.
That's what I used to do a long time ago to signify units for feet (single prime) and inches (double prime). Perhaps you need a different character?
