What I have known is, Notepad can display texts with a particular font only. But recently I pasted some texts from MS Word which were in Segoe UI font into the notepad which contains other texts too. Both fonts are displayed correctly. How does it happen? If I paste a different text with a different font other than Seoge, say for example, Impact, it is not displayed in Impact font. It may be a basic thing. But I could not understand how does it happen in a Notepad? enter image description here

1❶❷❸❹❺ÖƜΨ was directly taken from the character map of windows. It is well displayed in notepad. Seoge UI Symbol seems to be unicode. But "Seoge UI" ?– Mg BhadurudeenNov 19, 2020 at 16:22

What you see there in Notepad is actually plain un-formatted text as expected. Like you said, notepad displays text in a single font only. The WONDER word in your image contains special characters or symbols. You can access the full range of characters/symbols in Word by going to Insert, Symbol, More Symbols. There you can find all of the thousands of special characters/symbols not shown directly on your keyboard. Many if not all should paste into Notepad the same as they do in Word, un-formatted of course. Notepad just strips out the formatting (colors, bold, size, etc) but it won't change a text symbol since it is a character.
