How do you add this kind of annotation on your drawing?

>PE-HD<

Thanks for your help.

RE: Annotation

Change your note to this: $>PE-HD$<

The <> symbols are normally control characters, if you want to use them in a note you have to precede them with a dollar sign ($).

RE: Annotation

Been too long since I've been on a UNIX box...

Thanks, cowski.  I'd forgotten about the $ sign.  Should the original poster not give you a star within a couple of days, I'll give you one.

This is even worth a double star !!

Many thanks for this tip.

RE: Annotation

Glad I could be of help!

RE: Annotation

Very good tip cowski, a star from me

noted that only < needs to be preceded with a $ sign
>PE-HD$< works as well
