Answer

You are supposed to be able to do it by clicking alt+0176, but it hasn't worked for me. I have also not been able to find any resource on entering a temperature degree, so I use a work-around in Word.

In a Word document, insert the degree symbol by ctrl@+space or from Insert > Symbol...

Then copy the symbol and then Paste Special into FrameMaker as Text.

It is a round-about way to do it, but at least you can get the symbol into your document.
