How does the superscript generator work?

It swaps each letter or number for its Unicode superscript or subscript version, which are real characters rather than formatting. That means you can copy the result and paste it into places that do not support rich text, such as social media bios, usernames, and chat messages.

Why are some characters missing?

Unicode only has superscript and subscript versions for some letters. Numbers and most lowercase letters work well, but a few letters have no standard small form. Where there is no match, the generator leaves the normal character so your text stays readable.

Where can I use superscript text?

Anywhere that accepts plain text. It is handy for footnote markers, maths like x squared, ordinals such as 1st, chemical formulas like H2O, and for styling social media posts and profiles where formatting is not otherwise allowed.

What this tool does

Superscript characters sit above the line, like the 2 in x squared, and subscript characters sit below, like the 2 in H2O. This generator replaces each character with its Unicode small version, so the result is plain text rather than formatting. That is why you can paste it into places that strip styling.

A note on coverage

Unicode provides superscript and subscript forms for digits and many letters, but not every letter has one. Where a character has no small form, the tool keeps the original so your text still reads clearly. Numbers and common symbols always convert.
