Making Text Subscript or Superscript
You can raise or lower text from its baseline to display it as a superscript or a
subscript. Or if you prefer, you can raise or lower the text just a small amount from its
baseline, incrementally.
First select the text that you want to change.
To make selected text subscript or superscript:
Choose Format > Font > Baseline > Subscript.
m
Choose Format > Font > Baseline > Superscript.
m
To raise or lower the selected text incrementally:
Choose Format > Font > Baseline > Raise.
m
Choose Format > Font > Baseline > Lower.
m
To restore selected text to the baseline:
Choose Format > Font > Baseline > Use Default.
m
If you frequently use superscripts and subscripts as you type, you can add buttons to
the toolbar so that you can create superscripts and subscripts at the click of a button.
To learn how, see “The Toolbar” on page 21.
