Re: [Simply Computers] water symbol

 

It would seem that the ability to display or
print sub- and superscript characters is
dependent on the application you are using. Here
is a link that explains that further. Note that
some applications such as Adobe Illustrator have
separate font elements for these characters while
Word and Office simply change the current font size and shift it's position.

Interesting question.
