Where superscript text comes from

These aren't formatted text - they're separate Unicode characters that happen to look raised, which is why they paste correctly into places that don't support real text formatting, like a bio, a plain-text chat, or a spreadsheet cell.

Common questions

Why don't some of my letters convert to superscript?

Unicode only defines true superscript characters for a limited set of letters and digits. The letter q, and most uppercase letters, have no official superscript version, so this tool leaves those characters unchanged rather than faking them with a shrunken font.

Will superscript text display correctly everywhere?

These are real Unicode characters, not formatting, so they display consistently across most apps, browsers, and social platforms. A few very old systems or fonts may not include the rarer superscript letters.

How do I make a footnote number in Google Docs or Word?

For an actual footnote, use your editor's built-in footnote or superscript formatting tool rather than these Unicode characters, since it keeps the number linked to the note. This tool is best for plain-text places like chat, social bios, or spreadsheets where real formatting isn't available.
