Thanks, Wayne, but these keystrokes no longer work in Word 2016.

For what it is worth; I press alt-h followed by 6 on the number row to create 
superscript on the selected characters and 5 on the number row to create 
subscript on selected text.

Using MS Word 2007 it does not tell me that the change is ther unless I use 
Insert F

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Superscript in Word 2016

Hi. In previous versions of Word, superscript would be verbalized when I moved 
character by character. also, when I typed a number such as 14th, Word would 
automatically make the "th" superscript. Neither is happening with Word 2016 
and the current release of JAWS 2018. Even more disconcerting, a sighted 
assistant tells me that sometimes the "th" or "nd" is superscript, sometimes 
not, probably because I'm working in a document created in an earlier version 
of Word.

Can anyone suggest how:

  1.  To get Word to make "th" and "nd" in numbers like 14th and 2nd 
automatically appear as superscript?
  2.  To get JAWS to report superscript, and also subscript, in Word documents? 
I looked at the intermediate settings  for anything that might help, but 
nothing leapt out.

Note: Superscript is handled fine in Outlook 2016, which I have tethered to 
Word 2016.

Thanks.
