How to add superscript characters in Google Forms
A superscript character, which you might add to Google Forms for clarity and style, is a letter or number positioned slightly above the normal line of text. For instance, when abbreviating ““first” as “1st”, would have “st” as superscript characters, resulting in more legible “1st”.
Additional to superscript characters, you also have subscript characters that are set slightly below the normal line of type (e.g. the chemical formula for water – H2O).
This flexibility in formatting allows for a more dynamic and informative form design, making it possible to include scientific notations, mathematical equations, or even footnotes in a more structured and visually appealing way. With a bit of creativity and these simple steps, your Google Forms can go beyond basic text inputs, offering a richer experience for both form creators and respondents.
