Hello,
In the main menu go to Edit -> Insert from Character Map. In the Character Map dialog type in the Character code field the code for em-dash:
- decimal: 8212
or
- hexadecimal: 2014
Then you can insert it as either:
- Character
or
- Character entity (decimal/hexadecimal)
I'd suggest inserting it as a character entity to avoid issues with font representation.
Regards,
Adrian
