i'm working on a mostly English language script, but there are a few Spanish phrases and names included. i can't for the life of me figure out how to get the tildes and accents in there! i tried adding spanish language in my control panel, and i tried the alt + 0137 number combinations. i also tried the character map on my computer-- works just fine for other programs like wordpad and word but when I paste the characters in final draft, i just get a "?".
i am fairly computer illiterate, so i imagine the answer's pretty easy. can anyone help?
thank you!!

    I just tried this in FD and it works just like every other program on the mac.

    é - is option-e + e
    ü - is option-u + u
    ë - is option-u + e

    you get the idea.

    ñ
    î
    ü
