Indian Rupee Sign in Ubuntu Font Family


The Indian Rupee Sign (₹) has been supported in the Ubuntu Font Family since version 0.69. To display the sign, you must have a font—such as the Ubuntu Font Family—with support for the character. For K/Ubuntu 10.10 users, this is automatic.

The sign can be inserted in your own documents using copy-and-paste from another location, or using the Unicode-entry method:

  • Ubuntu 10.10: <Ctrl-Shift-u> 2 0 b 9 <enter>
  • MS Windows:  <Press-and-hold Alt> 2 0 b 9 <Release Alt>
  • Kubuntu 10.10:  Copy-and-paste ‘₹’HTML: insert “&#x20b9;”
