C with Accent (çćĉ-ÇĆĈ) | Accented C Capital Lowercase with ALT Code
C with accent letters include ç with a cedilla, ć with an acute accent, ĉ with a circumflex and ċ with a dot above. Tap any accented C below to copy it, in lowercase or uppercase.
To type accented c rather than copy it, use the ALT code beside each character: Alt+263 gives ć, Alt+262 gives Ć. Every accented C here also carries its Unicode point, decimal value, hexadecimal value and HTML entity.
Accented C Copy and Paste: Accent C With ALT Code List
Every accented C letter with its ALT code, split into lowercase and uppercase so you can go straight to the form you need. Tap a tile to copy that character to your clipboard, then paste it with Ctrl+V on Windows or Cmd+V on Mac.
A leading zero matters more than it looks: Alt+263 and its siblings address the Windows ANSI set and behave the same in every application, while the same number without that zero is read against the old DOS code page and can return a different symbol. Anything past 255 is a raw Unicode decimal, and if one of those gives you a black block, use the hexadecimal method below instead.

How to Type Accented c Using ALT Code?
Accented C is awkward on Windows for a reason worth knowing before you start: only two of its 19 characters fall inside the Windows ANSI set. That is Alt+0231 for ç, Alt+0199 for Ç. Every other accented C carries a raw Unicode decimal instead, which Word reads correctly but many other programs do not. The accented C characters are drawn from Latin-1 Supplement, Latin Extended-A, Latin Extended-B, Latin Extended Additional and Latin Extended-D, which is what determines whether a plain ALT code can reach them. TYPE 1 covers the ANSI code, TYPE 2 covers the other 17. In everyday writing the accented C people actually reach for is ç, used in French, Portuguese, Turkish, and its code is Alt+0231.
TYPE 1 – How to use ALT codes on a keyboard with and without a dedicated numeric keypad?
With only two ANSI codes to its name, this method gets you Alt+0231 for ç, Alt+0199 for Ç and little else for C. If the character you want is not in that short list, skip ahead to TYPE 2 rather than trying a longer number here.
Windows reads the number from the numeric keypad only, never from the digit row above the letters. Full keypad and Num Lock instructions are on the main typing guide.
When the result is a black box: A black box means the program mapped your number against its own legacy code page rather than Unicode and found nothing there. For C that happens with almost everything on this page, which is why TYPE 2 matters here.
TYPE 2 – How to type letters and symbols using ALT codes with the help of hexadecimal code?
This is the method that matters on the C page. 17 of the 19 accented C characters live above code point 255, as far out as ꞔ at U+A794, and the hexadecimal route reaches all of them.
Unicode is written U+nnnn and the bare hexadecimal is the nnnn part, so U+0107 and 0107 both point at ć. Any value from the technical section below works the same way.
Other ways to type accented C
Hold Shift with the final letter for the capital form.
Press and hold the c key on the on-screen keyboard. The row that appears offers ç ć ĉ ċ č and similar, and you slide onto the one you want before lifting.
The row offers only the forms your installed keyboard languages cover, so adding a second language in keyboard settings widens what is on offer for c.
HTML: paste the character directly on a UTF-8 page, or use ć or ć.
CSS: content:”\\0107″
JavaScript and Java: “\\u0107”
Python: “\\u0107”
Accented C Technical Information: Unicode, HTML, CSS and JavaScript Codes
Technical information for every accented C letter: Unicode code point, HTML hexadecimal entity, HTML decimal entity, ALT code, CSS escape, and the escape used in JavaScript, Java and C. These are the values you need when the character cannot travel as a pasted glyph, inside a CSS content property, a minified string, a config file with an uncertain encoding, or a database column still set to latin1.
Accented C Letters by Language: French, Portuguese, Polish and More
Accented C letters by language.

Accent C FAQ: ALT Codes, Copy Paste and Unicode
On Windows, hold ALT and type the code on the numeric keypad: Alt+0231 for ç. On a Mac, Option+c gives ç. On a phone, press and hold the c key and slide onto the variant you want. Or tap any character on this page to copy it.
Alt+263. Hold ALT, type the digits on the numeric keypad, then release ALT. The number row above the letters will not work. The capital Ć is Alt+262, a different code entirely.
French, Portuguese, Polish and Czech are the main ones, and the full breakdown with the exact characters each language needs is further up this page. Most writers only ever need four or five of the characters listed here.
The character is correct but the font in use does not contain that glyph, so your device shows a placeholder instead. This happens most often with the rarer forms of C. Switch to a font with wide Latin coverage such as Arial, Calibri, Charis SIL or Noto Serif and the letter will display properly. Nothing is wrong with the text itself, and it will paste correctly elsewhere.
Use the precomposed character, which is what every entry on this page is. A plain c followed by a separate combining mark looks identical on screen but counts as two characters, which breaks search, sorting and spell check, and creates duplicate records in databases and forms.
