(How) can I avoid entered (C) turning into a copyright symbol?
Hello,
you have two options in Writer
- Disable “AutoCorrect while Typing” unticking
Tools -> AutoCorrect -> While Typing– or … - Remove the replacement from the Replace list at
Tools -> AutoCorrect -> AutoCorrect Options -> Tab: ReplaceSearch for string “.*(C)”, select the string and click button Delete
and one option in Calc
- Remove the replacement from the Replace list at
Tools -> AutoCorrect Options -> Tab: ReplaceSearch for string “.*(C)”, select the string and click button Delete
Update Distinguish options in Writer and Calc

Option 2 looks like it probably would work although I haven’t done it yet. I can’t find Tools → AutoCorrect …. I do find Tools → AutoCorrect Options, but nothing in there about While Typing.
Option 1 is only available in Writer - sorry for not taking Calc into account. Please notice my update to the answer.
Got it now. Thanks for the update.
I had successfully done this once, but now am getting copyright symbols again and can’t an entry for (C) in the Replace list at Tools → AutoCorrect Options. Since I can’t find it, I can’t delete it.
Never mind, I just figured out how to add an entry to “Auto Correct” (C) to (C). A little weird but it works.
