Using superscript text in Google Slides, or any presentation software, can provide several benefits in presentations.

Adding superscript to your text is beneficial for various reasons. It allows you to denote exponents (like ² for squared), reference footnotes, indicate units in scientific notations, and present mathematical formulas or chemical symbols more clearly. Superscripts enhance readability and convey complex information succinctly.
Step 1: Highlight Text: Select the text that you want to format as superscript.

Step 2: Access the Text Toolbar:
  • If you're using Google Slides in a web browser, a text formatting toolbar should appear at the top of the screen when you select the text. If you don't see it, click on the "Text formatting" icon (it looks like a capital "A") in the top menu.
Step 3: Format as Superscript:
  • In the text formatting toolbar, you'll find the "Subscript" and "Superscript" buttons. Click on the "Superscript" button (it looks like "x²").

Step 4: Adjust Size and Position (if needed):
  • Sometimes, the superscript text may appear too small or not properly aligned with the baseline. You can manually adjust the size and position of the superscript text by selecting it and using the font size and vertical alignment options in the toolbar.

By following these steps, you can format text as superscript in Google Slides. In Google Slides, using superscript and subscript text formatting adds versatility to presentations. Superscripts are perfect for highlighting exponentials or footnotes, while subscripts are useful for chemical formulas or mathematical expressions. These features enhance content clarity, making complex information more accessible and visually engaging for the audience.
