Is there any option in Dropbox Paper to create Sub/superscripts without Latex?

- Hi there,
If just done a quick check using our own Paper docs. Currently we don't have this option in Dropbox Paper, but I'll forward your comments to our development team to see if they could implement this.
Thanks for your feedback!

JaySo...a year later, and there is nothing to do a superscript???
Is Dropbox Paper even an active project still, or have I wasted my time getting involved with it??? :unamused:

Its still very active and has had lots and lots of improvements (certainly way more than Dropbox itself has had) - sadly requests on here do not guarantee they'll be implemented.
There is a way to do superscript/subscript in Dropbox Paper in Safari on a Mac:
Type Control-Command-Space / when the popup appears search superscript / choose a number
Done
There is a workaround in Paper to get subscripts and superscripts. Paper lets you insert Latex Code. To get subscript, use
$$_{random text}$$For superscripts use
$$^{random text}$$Another trick is to use unicode charecters, which unfortunately don't exist for all possible ocmbinations: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_subscripts_and_superscripts
On my Mac, using Firefox, I found if I copy text from an HTML view that contains a superscript, Dropbox Paper will retain the superscript pasting that content into a document (as long as the content isn't only a superscript, but contains both regular text and superscript).
