Superscript Generator
Convert numbers, letters and math signs to Unicode superscript characters (x² , 10⁻³, ᵗᵐ) for copy and paste. Reports characters without a superscript form.
Unicode has superscript forms for digits, + − = ( ) and most Latin letters; q and some capitals (C, F, Q, S, X, Y, Z) have none and stay as they are.
What is Superscript Generator?
Converts text into Unicode superscript characters, such as x2 → x² or 10-3 → ¹⁰⁻³, that keep their raised look when pasted into plain-text fields. It covers digits, + − = ( ), almost all lowercase letters and many capitals, and tells you which characters could not be converted.
How to use Superscript Generator
- Type the text to raise into the Input box.
- Copy the superscript result from Output.
- If a warning appears, the listed number of characters had no superscript form and were left unchanged.
Example
x2+1
ˣ²⁺¹
When to use Superscript Generator
Use it for exponents and footnote markers in plain text: chat, social posts, spreadsheet cells, filenames. In documents and web pages, use real formatting (<sup> in HTML) instead, because the superscript letters come from different Unicode blocks and can look uneven.
How Superscript Generator works
Each character is looked up in a table of Unicode superscript and modifier letters: digits ⁰¹²³⁴⁵⁶⁷⁸⁹ (U+2070 block plus ¹²³ from Latin-1), signs ⁺⁻⁼⁽⁾, lowercase modifier letters (ᵃᵇᶜᵈᵉᶠᵍʰⁱʲᵏˡᵐⁿᵒᵖʳˢᵗᵘᵛʷˣʸᶻ) and capital modifier letters (ᴬᴮᴰᴱᴳᴴᴵᴶᴷᴸᴹᴺᴼᴾᴿᵀᵁⱽᵂ). Characters without a superscript form – q and the capitals C, F, Q, S, X, Y, Z – stay normal and are counted.
Common Use Cases
- Writing exponents like m² or 10⁻⁶ in plain text
- Adding footnote markers ¹ ² ³ in social posts
- Writing ™-style marks like ᵀᴹ
- Small decorative text in bios
FAQs
Why is q not converted?
Unicode has no widely supported superscript q (a modifier q was only added in Unicode 14 and most fonts lack it), so the tool leaves it unchanged and reports it.
Can I write chemical formulas?
Use the Subscript Generator for H₂O; superscript is for charges like Ca²⁺.
Do the letters line up perfectly?
Not always. They come from several Unicode blocks, so height and weight vary between fonts.
