I'm no specialist either, but found some pretty useful tips for things that were getting a bit annoying. For instance, what you are looking for is the letter 'x': typed in front of a kana, it'll print the small-size version. That aside, I really love Kotoeri, particularly its kanji-warning tips, which are just awesome if you aren't fluent... Deas:

I was getting frustrated with the Kotoeri input on my iMac. (The first thing I did was set it to "act like Windows IME" so that typing the letter L before the romaji for a character makes it small. I used to have to do even that simple action - frequently - through the menu system.) Your tips are going to help me out. So, again, thanks. :-) This is great!

Option + R = ® I use these all the time. Gotta just keep them stored in memory though. But I do find the character palette input easy enough. BTW we use all the phonetic symbols with our dictionaries.. I spend most of my days doing this stuff. I thought it was my little secret!! :) There are these on a mac too with the option key. eg option + Y -> ¥ Yen symbol.
