How It Works
Wingdings 2 shipped alongside the original in 1992, aimed at office documents: pointing hands for callouts, file and folder icons for annotations, circled zero-through-ten for numbered lists, and a full family of checks, crosses and prohibition signs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Wingdings 2 used for?
Its pointing hands, file icons and circled numbers make it popular for annotated lists, documentation and decorative bullets — a slightly more 'office' feel than Wingdings 1.
Is Wingdings 2 the same as Wingdings?
No — it's a companion face from the same 1992 release with its own mapping. A check mark is P in Wingdings 2 but ü in Wingdings 1.
Can I decode Wingdings 2 symbols?
Yes — paste them into the decode box above. It reverses the Wingdings 2 mapping, including circled digits.
