How to Create Your Own Fractions Manually in Word 2007

Word 2007’s AutoCorrect feature can build common fractions for you from a small set of existing fraction "characters." However, when you need a different fraction, such as 3/64, you can create it manually.

1. Press Ctrl+Shift+= (the equal sign).

   
   

   This is the keyboard shortcut for the superscript command.

   
   



2. Type the numerator.

   
   

   This is the top part of the fraction. For example, type 3 for 3/64.

   
   



3. Press Ctrl+Shift+=.

   
   

   This turns off superscripting.

   
   



4. Type the slash.

   
   

   This will separate the numerator from the denominator.

   
   



5. Press Ctrl+=.

   
   

   This turns on subscripting.

   
   



6. Type the denominator.

   
   

   This is the bottom part of the fraction.

   
   



7. Press Ctrl+=.

   
   

   This turns off subscripting.
