When some people explain how to do a certain calculation through a presentation, I sometimes see these presentations use the buttons necessary to press as pictures. For example, I've seen presentations tell me how to graph certain functions and, instead of saying press "Y=," the presentation would have the actual "Y=" button as a picture so you know what to look for on your calculator. I was wondering how these presentations got these pictures of the TI-84's buttons on their presentations as I would like to use them in an MS Word document.

Thank you!

Use a font http://www.google.com/search?q=ti-84+font.
If you distribute the document electronically,
you may have to take care to somehow include or embed the fonts.
