Add hyperlinked trademarks, copyright symbols, and more to your Confluence page in just a few clicks.
Looking to make your Confluence pages more professional? While consistent company branding can go a long way, little touches, such as trademark symbols, can help make your content more polished and trustworthy. This is especially true for customer-facing spaces such as your Confluence knowledge bases.
While Unicode symbols could be added with a Mosaic macro in Data Center, Confluence Cloud’s built-in features make it easier than ever to create them at no extra cost.
Note: This guide covers adding hyperlinked symbols such as trademarks, registered trademarks, copyright, and service marks to your page, but it can work with any other Unicode symbol of your choice.
How to add a symbol (Copyright, Trademark, etc.) to your Confluence page
