Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

Hi @raghwanibhupesh,

 

I made a short video to show how you can access additional characters/symbols when entering text.

 

You will see that when I start editing a piece of Mtext, I select the Symbol drop down from the Insert on the Mtest editor ribbon.  If I don't see the character I need, I can slecet other, pick a font I want to pull from and then find the symbol. Once I have it selected, I can copy and then paste into my editor.

 

Depedning on the font you select, finding the charactermight take some hunting.  Theta in the Arial font for instance is U+03F4

Alpha (lower case) is U+03B1
