Your computer’s keyboard contains character keys, control keys, 
function keys, and special Windows

®

 keys, providing all the 

functionality of a full-size keyboard.

Typing with the character keys is very much like typing on a 
typewriter, except that: 

❖

The space bar creates a space character instead of just passing 
over an area of the page.

❖

The lowercase letter l (el) and the number 1 are not 
interchangeable.

❖

The uppercase letter O and the number 0 are not 
interchangeable.

Although your computer’s keyboard layout is compatible with a 
standard full-size keyboard, it has fewer keys. 

A standard full-size keyboard has two 

Enter

, 

Ctrl

, and 

Alt

 keys; 

editing keys; cursor positioning keys; and a numeric keypad. 
Pressing the

 Fn

 key simultaneously in combination with one of the 

specially marked keys allows you to emulate a full-size keyboard. 

Your computer’s keyboard has only one 

Enter 

and one 

Ctrl

 key. Most 

of the time, this does not matter. However, some programs assign 
separate functions to the right and left 

Ctrl

 and 

Alt

 keys, or to the 

regular and numeric pad 

Enter

 keys on the full-sized keyboard. 

Using the 

Fn

 key, you can simulate these separate keys, as follows:

❖

Press 

Fn

 and 

Ctrl

 simultaneously to simulate the 

Ctrl

 key on the 

right side of the enhanced keyboard.
