How does this work?

Unicode — the standard set of characters used by all computers — doesn't explicitly define a superscript alphabet. So, this tool works by combining characters from different sets to create one.

What’s the difference between the two styles?

Almost every letter of the alphabet has a good superscript alternative. It’s just “i” and “q” that are missing. The two styles deal with this issue in different ways.

Style 1 uses ᶦ and ᵠ. This has the benefit of working well in most places online, but there’s no dot on the “i” and that is clearly not a “q”.

Style 2 uses three characters for the “i”: a combining diacritical mark (i) — a glyph that combines with the previous letter, a zero-width space to stop the “i” from combining, and a “hair space” to add a gap between the “i” and the next letter.

The “q” is created using the same character as the superscript “o” and a combining tilde overlay (~). This isn’t a perfect solution by any means, and these two alternative letters will sometimes fail to render correctly. For this reason, you may want to avoid the use of the letter “q” in superscript text.

When should I use superscript?

You can use superscript whenever and wherever you feel like it. That being said, there are a few specific instances where you may want to apply this text style.

CITATIONS

If you need to use Chicago style¹ citations but don’t have access to a regular superscript, this tool can fill the gap.

ORDINAL INDICATORS

Although 1st, 2nd, and 3rd are perfectly acceptable, you may want to create a cleaner look with 1ˢᵗ, 2ⁿᵈ, and 3ʳᵈ.

MATH

Writing powers with superscript — 𝓍⁹ — looks much better than using a circumflex — 𝓍^9.
