Which cross is which

Dagger or cross?

† (U+2020 DAGGER) and ‡ (U+2021 DOUBLE DAGGER) are typographic marks, used for footnotes after the asterisk. On Windows they have Alt codes (Alt+0134 and Alt+0135), which the crosses don't.

Frequently asked questions

How do I type a cross symbol?

Copy it from this page. On Windows you can also press Windows + . and open the Symbols tab; on a Mac, open the Character Viewer (Fn/Globe + E) and search for cross.

Is there an Alt code for a cross?

Not for ✝ itself. The closest is the dagger †, Alt+0134.

What's the difference between ✕ and ×?

✕ is MULTIPLICATION X, a Dingbats cross; × is MULTIPLICATION SIGN, the math operator (Alt+0215).
