When editing chemistry and mathematics data, we often usesuperscript or subscript to represent special symbols.

Take this document as an example, m² represents the square in the unit area. How can we set the number 2 as a superscript? Select the number 2. In the Home tab, click the Superscript button. Or we can use the shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+= to set the number as a superscript.

Numbers in some chemical symbols need to be set as subscripts, such as O₂, N₂. Select the number 2 in O₂. In the Home tab, click the Subscript button, or use the shortcut key Ctrl+= to set the number as a subscript display.

In addition, after clicking the right mouse button, click Font in the shortcut menu bar, and a dialog box will pop up. You can also set Superscript or Subscript in Effects.
