superscript & subscript odd behavior [1.8.3.641]


Recommended Posts

Same controls (sub/superscript in "positioning and transform" & "typography") can be interesting when it works for all characters in the same way, but here... In French we say, by being polite: what a bag of knots! (by changing the font, it can be different, and with other characters, no test). In the attached example both "H" are a visual reference. Merci

The Position and Transform functions provide faux super- and subscripts for any characters you apply them to. These are primarily done by adjusting the scaling and baseline, and may or may not resemble any true super- and/or subscript characters provided in the font.

The Typography functions provide the true super- and subscript characters provided by the font, but only for those characters provided by the font.

You would not want to specify both transforms for the same character, unless you want odd results like your last few examples. You should apply one, or the other, to the characters that need those functions.
